The shower closest the incoming water from the well has good pressure. The shower in the master bath on the opposite side of the house is very low. It works, but I'd really like to have better pressure, particularly since it's the master bath. Both showers have the same fixtures. I replaced the showerhead in the master as I wanted to do that anyway. Both the old and new shower heads produce much less pressure than the opposite side of the house which has the same shower head. Are there sometimes pressure adjustments on the valves? Also note that the laundry room is on the opposite side of the wall from the master bath and the laundry sink faucet seems to get very good pressure. A faucet photo is attached. It is a Delta. The reason I'm posting the photo is to ask how to take this one apart so that I can lube it and check the valve for model and flow controls. The round piece on the outside that you turn to point to the red or blue markings to control temp is hard to turn and sort of wobbly. I'm sure this temp control is not supposed to be so hard to turn, so I'm assuming I can put some plumbers lube somewhere in there to free it up. How does this thing come apart? Is the temp control a press fit and just needs to be pulled off?
I also noted that for the first time in years, my logon ID says "New Member". It had said "Senior Member" in the past as I've been a member for many years. Wondering why that is.
