Did you try flushing the line before you put the cartridge in? sometimes debris gets stuck in the main lines and wont flow through them.

SOURCE: low pressure and flow on hot water side of single handle faucet

It could be one of two problems, one simple, one serious.

  • Easy fix
  1. Turn off hot water angle stop under sink to faucet.
  2. Remove supply line from hot angle stop.
  3. Place end of supply line in a small bucket to catch some water.
  4. Turn on cold water for a couple of seconds and backflush debris from faucet.
  5. Reconnect supply line.
  6. Turn on angle stop and test
  • Complex fix
If you have steel pipes you may be experiencing reduced flow due to corrosion in your pipes. Reduced hot water pressure in the kitchen faucet is usually the first sign since this is the faucet that is most used in the home.

Repiping is a job for a professional. Another symptom you may need a repipe is orange colored or rusty water.

Something is caught in the stem. Make sure the stem is free of debris. Also check that the valve or cartridge is intact.

SOURCE: I just installed a new cartridge in a moen single

try and pull the cartridge out and look in there with a flash light and make sure there isn't any think lodged in the hot water side of the faucet, you might even want to leave the cartridge out and turn the water back on to try and flush it out. alot of times rubber from the old cartridge gets stuck in there as you are pulling the old one out especially if it's stuck in there good

How can I fix a Moen faucet 1225 in the kitchen?

Question edited for correct spelling of maker 'Noen' to 'Moen'.

'Fix' as in it is leaking? Or tighten it down because it is wobbly, or something completely different?

Hello. We have a Moen two handle tub/shower faucet. A little over a year ago it started to make a high pitched noise when on. Now the water flow to both the tub and shower are greatly reduced for BOTH...

sounds like the diverter inside the valve body is cloged with debris.

only wat to remedy this is to remove the valve and clean out the diverter, or just replace the valve.
