Flow restriction in kitchen faucet

In my previous post I did not respond to your query regarding cleaning the system.

We also experienced drastic flow reduction from our kitchen faucet. It got to the point there was only a dribble from that faucet. Others were OK. I disassembled the faucet and found a blockage of calcium and factory debris (wood chips, etc.) were blocking the entrances to the faucet where the hoses terminate. I cleared that debris and now we have good flow flow from all our faucets. I did not attempt to treat the system for calcium build up in any other manner other than add filtering and w/s as described earlier.

I hope your fix is as easy and successful.
