: Hi, Terry (and all who read this). Just bought a very old house (100) and noticed, prior to purchase, : that the tub shower didn't put out much water when the diverter was engaged. No big deal, I thought. : Well, now that we own it, my wife went to shower last night, called me into the bathroom and told me : to take a look. The water from the shower head was now just a trickle. Can this be just a worn-out : diverter, or might there be more serious problems? No effluent came from the faucet when the diverter : was in use, but also no water came from the shower head. Can I fix this myself? Thanks for any help : you can give me. Sounds like your shower head needs a good cleaning. Do you have hard water? Is it a new shower head or the one that came with the house? Hope all that water isn't going into the wall...
