No Water coming out of shower head

[Ian Wright]

My shower is only “dripping” water. No proper water pressure. It’s the first time we have had any problem with it. It’s a stand-alone shower (Moen faucet) and we have a seperate bathtub. Water to all other faucets in the house are fine….Any ideas ?

And you are having some of the cold weather that the rest of the country is having, you may have a frozen pipe going up to the shower head.

If so, remove the cover plate for the Moen faucet and use a hair drier to get some heat into the area. But be observant, if the pipe thaws out, it may have already cracked and have a leak, in which case, you will need a plumber to frozen/burst pipe.

Good Luck!

Ian,

The shower head could have clacium and phosphate deposit buildup inside the shower head itself. These deposits will break loose and clog the head. You may want to take the shower head off and turn the water on to clean out the pipe ( and make sure it is not the water pressure) and check the inside of the water head. Sometimes it is that simple.
