To fix a hot water faucet to a washer with no flow, first, check the water supply valve to ensure it is fully open. Next, inspect the hot water hose for kinks or blockages, and make sure the faucet aerator is clean. If the issue persists, detach the hose and check for sediment build-up in the faucet or hose. If necessary, replace any faulty components to restore water flow.
If you notice reduced pressure in one of your faucets and not other faucets, and notice that the flow is reduced in both the hot and cold sides of the same faucets then it is probably your aerator. If it is only on one side of your faucet (hot or cold side) then it is probably a mineral buildup in the valve of the faucet (you can clean that side or replace the valves components.) You can also try to loosen the mineral deposits by... first removing the aerator then turn off the supply line valve ( the valve under the sink, several times) to try and dislodge the mineral deposit; if you leave the drain stopper closed and place a dark colored wash rage in the sink, you may notice the deposits flowing through the faucet. While you have the aerator removed clean that or replace it, they are cheap.) If all this fails then you will probably have to replace the valve under the sink.
You have to undo the aerator at the end of the faucet and clean the screen or plastic water saver out. It will be plugged with sand or sediment.
You close the 2 shut off valves below the faucet, remove the pipes going to faucet from both ends. Now you will see the 2 large flat nuts holding the faucet to countertop. These will be easier to remove with a plumbers faucet wrench (about $8 in your hardware store) This has a long shaft and a flat spring loaded head. Remove both nuts and pull faucet out. When you go th get new faucet,also buy braided SS flexible water lines. About $4 each, they are much simpler and better than the cheap grey plastic ones. Re-connect everything opposite order.
I bought their Hanover 529 pull down faucet. BOTH quick connect fittings (hot and cold supply lines) leak. The people on the toll free number offered to send me replacemnt parts. I declined, and instead am taking the unit back to the store for replacement. Needless to say, I will NOT be buying a Pfister faucet this time.
