Need some help. I have an older home and when we moved in the first floor tub/shower had very low water pressure. We replaced the faucets and shower head and this seemed to help the problem, for a few weeks. Now suddenly the pressure is low again. Pressure in the rest of the house is normal, and there is no separate shut off to this tub that could be partially closed or anything like that. Not sure what to try.
