This is the voice I want to hear for tutorials.

[@davebrogan7941]

This is exactly what I did and was shocked to see how much sediment came from the lines. It’s a wonder I had any water flow at all. For those who were critical of this video - I can testify that this solved my problem. Thanks for the video!

[@michaelsyoutubechannel5857]

Very informative video. A clogged aerator is the best case scenario. In my case the sediment had built up in the actual shutoff valve and flushing it would not have been sufficient. It had to be removed and replaced. This also let me clean out the copper pipe near the valve which also had sediment. Took the opportunity to replace both water lines as well. Good to know this is a common issue.

[@thecityoutdoors]

Hi Tom thanks. Oh also like the gray nail polish. Nice touch 😜

[@hamiltoncamp]

RIGHT!!??

[@HalProctor]

nice job explaining to the non plumbers...but you should never put the aerator back on before clearing supply lines. Clearing or removing the supply lines can cause sediment to break free. Clear your lines and reattach, then run some water through the faucet without the aerator until clean flow. Then put the aerator back on.

love his nail polish...

Since I had no basin wrench available I disconnected the hotwater supply line at the shut off valve after turning water valve off. I let cold water run like I was mixing at the faucet, 20 seconds later I shut the water to the cold water faucet off, checked bucket saw sediment that had come out with the back flushing of the hot water line. Put everything back together and water pressure is great on both sides. I am 83 and a great grandma and could do it so can you. Thanks Signature .

[@blondiemohon]

Just followed your suggestion and it worked like a charm! THANK YOU!

[@bobbyj6410]

You're supposed to remove the aerator again before running the water if you disconnected the lines and flushed them, or else the sediment will go right back to your aerator.

[@Joseph-iw7su]

You're not flushing water lines.....you're flushing the fixture. Most problems are in the pipes going to the fixtures.

[@matthewsachaullymce279]

indeed..

[@bswaterlineservices]

there is a way to flushing the water lines without remove or cut the pipe lines and tap just with in 30 minutes please see my videos or call 8015513812

[@sandrachadd8914]

@@bswaterlineservices please send me your video on how to flush out water lines please my email is [e-mail] thank you

[@kevinzky88]

its really misleading

[@DallasD_]

🟠 HERE IS ANOTHER FIX: First shut off the main water source, then run a garden hose from the neighbors house or completely separate water source. Attach the garden hose to the the clogged water fixture. There are adapters available at home depot if you dont have a perfect fit. Open all connected faucets and/or fixtures, and also remove the GPM flow-restrictiors from these plumbing fixtures which will allow and backwash the collected sediment/clog out the other way through these fixtures. Run hot water through the garden hose if possible, hot water can potentially loosen up sediment and clogs better. Alternating from cold to hot in 5-10 minute intervals can also expand and contract the pipes loosening clogs/sediment up as well.

[@victorcastrellon4880]

Thank you so much, great video, very clear, very easy to follow.

[@AngelClark-v8n]

Can I unscrewed the line closest to the shutoff valve ? I can not get to the lines connecting to the faucet

[@davidbelitz7692]

Aerator and lines are clean. Pressure after reattaching is less than 10%. What do I do? The pressure when lines are disconnected is powerful.

[@MrRepoman197]

I did this and it worked! Thank you!

[@marjorieschmitt-simms181]

I have a well and just changed the sink kitchen and bath, bath faucets for tub and hot water to tankless. Still no water pressure 200 coming in to the holding tank hardly anything into the house/

[@deborahdove4826]

I wonder if this would work on a tolit water line.

[@SignatureHardware-SH]

You can flush a toilet line in the same way as the lines are in the second half of the video.

[@JulianHale]

Nice nails dude...

lol holy that got me good hahaha

[@gideongirl3]

How do you flush kitchen water lines with dishwasher?

[@bobbyj6410]

@@gideongirl3 Pull the dishwasher out and disconnect the copper line and put it in a bucket, but you'll have to turn it on and off under the sink so it would be best to have two people do it.

Our water comes out feeling oily and has a visible sheen some days it's slimy feeling some days it feels just a tab bit oily what could be causing this?We are located between some buildings that use chemicals could they have anything to do with why our drinking water has been coming out this way?

[@dav0113]

The house is in Costa Rica and the lines have a huge amount of calcium buildup in them. The water runs and it a dirty white color. I have tried all these things but I think I need to fill the lines with vinegar and soda and then flush them out. Is there a video instruction on how to do that? Thank you.

[@rolandaber5322]

Yes I am in Costa Rica with the same problem, did you find fix for your problem?

[@jasonsmith902]

Why are you wearing nail varnish

[@Cantgetusernam]

How about when the blockage is before the valve and not on the hose side?

[@bswaterlineservices]

there a way to remove the calcium deposit with in 30 minutes even if the building has 10 floors (just three hours) please see my video and call me 8015513812

[@michaelbudniak2193]

Replace your stop valve then.

[@larryfranklin4547]

The water line to my fixture is stopped up. How do I flush it?

[@SignatureHardware-SH]

Hi, Larry! You could try a little WD40 to try to unseize the handle on your water line to flush. Beyond that, we'd recommend a professional.

[@larryfranklin4547]

@@SignatureHardware-SH Everything is good or new from the water line to the fixture. Water line itself is stopped up.

[@SignatureHardware-SH]

@@larryfranklin4547 If the water line is flogged, please refer to the last minute and a half of the video for information on flushing the water lines. Even if your lines are new, when doing plumbing, debris can make its way into new lines. If you need more help, plesae call us at 855.715.1800 to troubleshoot. Thanks!

[@stanwilson7566]

I have done this and I still have low water flow, this is in my kitchen. I have good water flow in both baths and wash room. What do you suggest I do? I have the gray pipe in my home.

[@SignatureHardware-SH]

+Stan Wilson People do encounter this issue from time to time. Sometimes the build-up of sediment can be somewhere between the stop valve and the cartridge of the faucet. We will need to go through each component connected to the faucet to find the blockage. It could be a loose washer in a stop valve, debris blocking the inlet/outlet of the cartridge, or something in the supply lines. It would be helpful if we knew the specific faucet you are dealing with. Please give us a call at 866.855.2284.

[@stanwilson7566]

I changed out the faucet and still have low flow in the hot and cold, I have that water pipe that everyone had trouble with, do you think that the pipe maybe going bad? Thanks

[@SignatureHardware-SH]

Without looking at the pipe firsthand it is hard to say. If you have addressed all possibilities with the faucet then you have to start considering the water flow into the faucet. The next thing to consider would be the valve stops.

[@stanwilson7566]

I will check this out

[@RCuniquellc]

+Stan Wilson I think the low water flow is means your pipe system is dirty ,you seriously need to do a pipe clean .check our channel ,and watch how we clean the water pipes .

Manufactured double wide home. front half of the home has the kitchen and a bath. Back half of home has 2 bathrooms. The back half is ok with water pressure. The front half of the house has poor pressure to the cold water outlets, hot water pressure is ok in the kitchen bath and shower. tried the faucet troubleshooting etc even the flushing no resolve. Any ideas?

how many delivery pipe line from your water tank sir. one or two? any how just 30 minutes there is no calcium deposit in your pipe lines without cut or remove your taps and pipes sir

what if you think you have a build up in the aerator, but have fancy faucets that dont have a removable cap like the one in this video?

[@bmsamson]

That's all well & good but doesn't address the underlying cause. I sometimes have to clean the aerator on my kitchen sink several times in a single wash-up session, and have had to remove screens in dishwasher and clothes washer supply lines that were continually getting clogged with the same green sediment. Green to me suggests copper somehow/somewhere, but how to diagnose and solve for good, not just for a minute, is the real issue. BTW, I'm in an apartment building, we don't have our own water heater in our unit so i can't just go there.

[@michelemarch8270]

Thank You

[@johnhoover249]

I want to know how to back flush a clogged cold water faucet. All this showed my was how to verify that my shut off valve is OK, which I already did.

[@SignatureHardware-SH]

If you think there may debris in the faucet itself, it sounds like you need to try cleaning the cartridge in your faucet. We have a video for that as well. Please see below. kzbin.info/www/bejne/rmGkk6t6gctlnNk
