Steve: It sounds like there may be a loose washer in the supply valve line that serves that branch. Akmed have two (2) sinks in an upstairs bathroom. When the water is running in both sinks, often when 1 faucet is turned off the water flWe ow in the other sink either drops significantly or shuts off. It is usually accompanied by a clunking sound. In a couple of instances, when 1 sink and the shower were simultaneously being used, and the shower was turned off, the sink water pressure again dropped or shut off. : What could be causing this? Is there a fix?
