I have a new construction home with PEX plumbing. My master shower water pressure is normal when it is turned on then drops by about 75%. The whole house water pressure is normal and this issue is isolated to this fixture. The builder’s plumbers have: changed out and flushed the hybrid water heater, installed a hot water heater filter (they believe calcium deposits are causing blockage, but only to this fixture), flushed the lines, torn out the drywall to visualize the plumbing that is above the slab. I hired 2 independent plumbers who believe there is an obstruction/kink below the slab and that the existing master shower pex should be capped off and rerouted through the attic from an alternate hot cold source. I would appreciate any thoughts or input please and thank you.
