I have a Grohe kitchen faucet in a house with old rusting pipes (remodel soon!)
When I first installed the faucet, it had little pressure. After tearing everything apart, I isolated the problem to the quick coupling. Replacing that, I got pressure. (Theory: I shut off water to install new faucet; turning water back on knocked loose some rust.)
The city recently turned off the water. When it came back on - surprise - our faucet had no pressure. I just replaced the quick coupling again and pressure is now fine.
Is there a way to clean out this coupling? At $30/pop, replacing them each time is not the best solution.
