Reduced Water Pressure in Shower

Bill A.

I have a weil-mclain tankless hot water system which both heats (steam) and provides domestic hot water to the second floor apartment of a two family home. recently the tenant has identified a reduction in water pressure in the shower - not so in the kitchen or bathroom sinks though. Water provided remains hot enough, simply pressure is the issue.

Can anyone tell me what might be the problem/tell me what steps to use to diagnose?

Thanks

I would remove the shower head and make sure it's not clogged by calcium deposits. Is there an anti-scald valve on the shower? This might need to be cleaned, adjusted, or replaced.

check to see if there might be a restrictor installed in the shower head.also tale the time to check the shutoff valves for washer troubles.
