Shower Pressure Restrictor Valve | How to Remove Restrictor and Increase Water Pressure

[@celestialchik]

Thank you so, so much! I just bought a detachable shower head and was shocked by how terrible the pressure was! It was like a trickling stream, which works for some but DEFINITELY not for me. I removed the plastic restrictor and the pressure is now nice and powerful!

[@EoinDineen]

Oh this was EXACTLY what I needed... I've been living in this house for 1.5 years and the water pressure (even after changing head) always bothered me and this was the perfect (and quick) fix I even went to our kitchen sink which basically dribbled water and applied the same method and now I'm able to fill the kettle without going for a nap Thanks again

[@stephanierobinette4425]

So guess everything has a restrictive device. Kitchen water sink. Drives me batty. Where is the restriction thing on the sinks. ? Thanks

[@EmitRelevart]

@@stephanierobinette4425 The very end of the tap where the water comes out is removable. Unscrew it and inside you'll see the restrictor in there. Just pop it out and screw the tap end back on. After following the instructions in this video for the shower head, I too went around the house and removed the rest. Man, what a difference. No more waiting forever for the hot water to get hot (or the cold to get cold) and rinsing the dishes before putting them in the dishwasher now just takes a few seconds, instead of standing there forever. And as the OP pointed out, filling the kettle is now done in a flash!

[@zetec7]

I'll never understand the "save us from ourselves" pundits who seem to think that having to take a 15 minute shower with almost no pressure is better than a 5 minute shower with twice the pressure. The "trickle" shower actually uses MORE water than a full-pressure one. Save us from do-gooders who enact laws to cure non-existent problems & without actually researching to see if it needs fixing...or whether the "fix" is worse than the problem. Anyway, thanks for the video!! I just took apart my shower wand set and eventually found the restrictor, hidden inside the wand hanger section. Despite all my water pressure, the tiny little restrictor hole (less than 1/8" diameter) was forcing a lot of water out the faucet, rather than out the shower head. Not anymore!!

[@richmellow3315]

Exactly, I spent more time looking for soap to rinse off than actual bathing. This water restricter removal information should be in the installation instructions, but I'm sure the manufacturers aren't allowed to inform the public even if they wanted to.

[@zetec7]

Exactly! Wouldn't want to run afoul of those federal regulations, would we? LOL I just showered with my newly-de-restricted shower head - thorough shower in 4 minutes...used to take 15 - 20 minutes.

[@TDlovesBFDI]

Thank you for not mentioning that group by the more real name. I don't want our fine government telling me how to live, let alone how to bath or poop... But, we know they are trying to. And, I don't know about you, but... My bathroom is more private than my bedroom. ;-)

Bahaha....do you realize how moronic your comments are? "Infinite Wisdom, " hardly. Only a moron (or Republican) would turn a plumbing video into something political.

[@horacemiller7899]

This was a good help.... took the “O”-Ring and baaaam! All done..... wife is happy, she has more water pressure! Thanks Frostie✌🏾

[@zeltheclown7720]

you just saved me an unnecessary purchase. I was originally gonna buy a new showerhead considering our current one was no good- living in Texas, especially during the summer, means nothing but a trickle of water comes out of our shower. Instead, I decided to see if there were any alternatives. I came across this video, gave it a shot, and boom. Worked like a charm. Best water pressure I've had in years

[@realitierney]

Very helpful! I texted my new landlord today after my first shower was pitiful and took forever to get shampoo out of my hair. Thankfully they responded to help fix it that day very quickly, but when I got home from work later it was the same. This video thought me how to remove an o ring and clear out some major calcium buildup that was in there. Put it back on and works great! Thanks!

[@bageland2000]

Dude, you're awesome. I just took a shower with a fire hose after using a super soaker 50 for the past few days.

Thank you for the tip. Took a corkscrew and pulled the valve right out. No more low pressure on my shower......me and my family greatly appreciate the tip

[@Rmmy67]

The Corkscrew FTW!! Thank you. I tried everything else short of a drill and no luck. Appreciate this tip! Ty

[@FROSTYLIFE]

Glad it helped!

[@theword4501]

i removed and love it! I can actually rinse the soap off me body in less than 45 minutes (shower reduced to 3 minutes). just flip handle up turn off between rinse wash rinse. saves water. ..and soap allergies alleviated.

[@FROSTYLIFE]

Yes, I believe we should have the ability to have the choice of water flow rates, depending upon what we need. I really like giving people the knowledge and ability to choose what is best for them.

[@robertconlin1778]

One of the rare times I comment just bought a new shower head from Wal-Mart long story short I didn't have any water pressure I do now thanks to this video and my wifes wine cap remover thank you so much sincerely a dirty mechanic

[@FROSTYLIFE]

Great tip!

[@stormtrooper5588]

A fee years back i purchased a cheap made in china showerhead with no restriction and worked perfect.but with time it had to be replaced,and i noticed every showerhead has that freaking restriction valve,just purchased a nice discount one at a local tjmaxx and goodbye restriction valve.thanks for the video!

[@achosenone44]

these sickos devil minions is sickos with china!!!

[@isreal77765]

Just gotta say that I just tried this and wow I’m mind blown!! Thank you so much for making this video! Those flow restrictor valves really do decrease the flow! This was the answer for better water flow, at least for me it was. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

[@RobloxGamer12941]

I have the harder process of using needle nose pliers or even a screw to get mine out but right now my shower head is soaking in vinegar to remove hard water build up and I've got my humidifiers soaking in the tub for the scale buildup lol so I won't be trying My shower heads until tonight. I'm excited lol It's amazing how one tiny thing can make someone so happy

[@Birdsandclover]

I’m going to check out my shower head tomorrow. I’m a get in, scrub down and get out bather. Because of the pathetic water pressure, my time to shower has increased significantly. So has my time to clean my shower. I feel that I’m using more water now compared to other places I’ve lived at. Thank you for your advice.

[@christophet249]

Great video. Just purchased a Moen handheld yesterday and the pressure was weak. This video made removal of the flow restrictor much simpler than I thought.

[@FROSTYLIFE]

Great to hear!

[@ahmeda9901]

Thank you Thank you Thank you Thank you Thank you Thank you Thank you Thank you Thank you Thank you

[@salmonfan35]

Today I followed this great video and it worked, it just required a slight modification to a brand new Moen shower head, really helped to learn that the restrictor valve is in the inlet arm of the unit, no need to mess with the shower head. In my case there was just room to insert a twisted stiff wire with a hooked end under the cross of the plastic restrictor and pull hard, it just popped out in one piece. Done deal, rescrewed the head unit onto its hose and now have a real shower, not a poor excuse of one. The piece that popped out was obviously just pushed in originally, its a circular shaped plastic piece with a cross that seems to be there for the extraction option to perform, just pull hard with that hooked wire under the plastic cross of the restrictor and you win.

[@FROSTYLIFE]

That is very helpful information. It is fantastic when the manufacturer gives us the option to choose a mode that is more in line with what we need from the product.

[@TheDylan6908]

I don't you but I freaking love you. Since we renovated our bathroom 3 years ago I've been extremely dissatisfied with the water pressure coming out if my shower fixtures. (I have a fixed spout and a hand held sprayer) Thanks to you I removed both flow restrictors and voila` great water flow through both. God bless u brother.

[@mrhhugo]

Your advice to use a screw saved my life, and my shower head!! Thank you so much!

[@kathleengreen4752]

Totally worked and I just removed the little rubber ring and cleaned the sediment out. Thanks for explaining how shower heads work!

[@epacrisimp]

I found the restrictor but just removed the little rubber ring and the pressure was much better. Did not have to bother trying to remove the restrictor. Soooo happy!!!!

[@loooveismusic8]

😀🙏💗🌸 OMGOD!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!! I LITERALLY LOOOOVVVEEE YOU FOR THIS!!!! I've been having miserable showers for about a year-and-a-half, and I thought it was due to the new one handle faucet the building management had a plumber install in my shower. I'm sure that had a little something to do with it. But after watching this video and following the steps showing how to remove all the water restrictor valves, I simply can't describe how friggin relieved I am to have a proper shower now!!! I have longer hair so you can imagine how frustrating it was for me to try and get the shampoo and the conditioner out every single time! It was simply miserable. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS HELPFUL VIDEO!!!! 😀🙏💗🌸

[@TheDarkDutchman]

Removing the water restrictor is the best hint ever!!! In particular for electric boilers that do not work properly when the waterflow is interrupted.

[@FROSTYLIFE]

You are right, I never thought of that, but now that you mention it, I have a new boiler that provides instant hot water, and it does not produce hot water unless the water flow is increased. Thank you for pointing that out.

[@TheDarkDutchman]

@@FROSTYLIFE Glad I could help👍. And in my case removing the black ring, like on 4:38, is enough to have a great shower experience. 😀

[@Thebostyman2707]

Great video. The gasket in the restrictor slipped once, giving me good water pressure then slipped back into place reducing it again. Made me think like wtf? I want that back. This video helped explain it wasn’t a plumbing issue, but the shower hose itself. Thank you so much!

[@FROSTYLIFE]

I am very happy to hear that this video helped you get your water pressure increased in your shower.

[@oceanbreezesic]

Hey Frosty! Great video! My wife has been wanting me to do this for so long. I'm going home and giving it a try. Thanks again. Also, just to point out. When wrapping teflon tape around threads, you should wrap clockwise for right hand turn nuts. Just saying...

[@RobloxGamer12941]

Well good thing that I have a habit of wrapping Teflon tape to the right lol

[@miney2220]

i just followed your instruction step by step, it happens, OMG! REAL rainfall throws out from the shower head. THANKS!

Thanks for these great tips...I mean it! Just bought a Moen showerhead yesterday, the Magnatek type and was worrying about how much water could flow from it. We're on a well, so I don't feel so terrible about pulling the restricter valve. THUMBS UP!!

[@FROSTYLIFE]

Fantastic!

[@elenat.6180]

Thanks a million! I used the wine opener method and it worked just great. Love this video. Thanks for sharing.

[@txbob]

I loved your video especially since I have a new bathroom. When the plumber finished up we put on the shower. I might be an OF, but I have thick hair.....t]he darn thing trickled. He took the head off and said look, the gasket has such a small hole. I said I had another shower head, it had a larger holed gasket, installed it, and now my shower will almost get my beard wet to the skin..,..almost. This was a great video to come across. I am just lucky that I hadn't dismantled my shower in our outbuilding bathhouse that has an ECCOTEMP propane on demand hot water heater...PS: $125 to the house and has worked great for 7 years, but we finally have "inside" plumbing which has been not up to par, maybe it will NOW thanks to you. Now that I've lauded you, it is time to smack you down just a bit. I do not consider what you called needle nose pliers to be needle nose pliers, more like big clumsy vice grips....doesn't matter that much. The thing though, is those of us with outboards sometimes don't really listen to those with inboards. Your wife showed you how to clean the shower head with vinegar and water and to agitate the shower head by moving around the shower head parts. You then went in and typical outboard fashion, didn't do as she had shown, you said agitate the solution, but you didn't say to move the shower head parts around......yep, those in the outboard section sometimes don't listen well to the inboards.....I'm guilty also at times. Thanks for the video and hoping to have a full bore INDOOR shower later today......and THANKS TONS, next time I see the plumber I will have to tell him about this video.....who knows, maybe by law a licensed plumber can't legally tell a client these things----peace and good day all

[@FROSTYLIFE]

The vice grip is all I had. I have no budget for tools and have not had anyone ever teach me the terminology, and I do my best to simply help people. Hahaha, I could learn to listen to my wife, and follow directions better.

[@louisyeostros4978]

You should have had him install a tub valve on the shower head rough in

Thanks it really worked i installed a 2 piece shower head when u have both one pressure was terrible i found the restrictor in the mounting assembly and got it out and now wow its great. Cant believe water could get throw the o ring covered the holes

Fabulous-did the trick My shower head hose was filled with black junk, and only one year old. Thanks!

[@CarlVandenberg]

I restrict my water pressure at the line coming into my house so I do conserve water, thereby conserving my money. This video will help allow me to take a shower without having to run around in circles to get wet. Now if you have a video on how to bypass low flow toilets I will be able to conserve more water by not having to flush multiple times to get ride of those pesky "floaters". ;)

[@FROSTYLIFE]

They make some toilets that have a more forceful flush without using too much water. It is all about the design and unfortunately there is no way to open up the rate of flush. You could perhaps adjust how full the tank gets so that there is more water available. That is a pretty easy adjustment to make in the back of the toilet tank.

[@joescheller6680]

@@FROSTYLIFE hold the handle down till tank empties then you get a better flush than if you just push and release

[@deblynceeley9036]

Thank you! I have super thick hair and had a hard time getting shampoo out before. So I ended up taking excessively long showers. Now with the increased water pressure my shower was short and worked well. So I think I conserved water by taking the restrictor off

That would certainly be hard to see (tell) from his simply showing spray on video. Niagara Falls is the same; when that water volume was reduced by nearly half, the look of the falls did not change.

Hello, I could not get needle nose pliers to work, so I drilled a hole with a 3/16 drill into the center of the plastic restrictor just through the plastic surface about 3/8", stop the drill and the plastic restrictor valve will get held in place onto the drill bit, then just pull it out, it worked!

Thank u!!!! Just bought a new shower head & the restrictor was taking so much space the brand new head was leaking from the connection after multiple tapings & tightening.

I’m guessing the restrictor puts more pressure on the connection. Great video

[@JB-3794]

Yes! 😊 You clever man. Sometimes it takes so long to take a shower that I probably use the same amount of water with or without the restriction. 🤔 With a low water flow, it takes lots of extra time to rinse shampoo and conditioner from hair, and lots of extra time to get the soap off the body. I've changed out my shower head 3 or 4 times, hoping for improvement. My current shower head has a twist to make available 4 or 5 choices, so I can still switch to low when needed, even if I decide to remove the restriction.

Instead of buying new red 2.2 GPM flow restrictors I used your tip to remove to O-ring for both my shower faucet and sink faucets and now everything is working great. Sink faucets were producing only 0.5 GPM (after cleaning in white vinegar solution), but after removing the O-ring they are now making 1.25 GPM. That is still slight under the 1.5 GPM they are rated for, but it makes a world of difference in using the faucet and it was fast and free to fix them this way. Thanks for helping me remove one of the most annoying problems in my sinks!

At 3:20 you're actually instructing the viewer to get rid of the sediment filter (the piece with the tab that unscrews) Don't discard the filter! Instead, punch out the piece underneath it from the ball, if it exists, which is the actual restrictor. Then REPLACE the sediment filter.
