Why does my shower only trickle?
Unequal pressure between hot and cold water at the showerhead means the clog is in the valve, not the shower head. One of the small ports or openings in the valve is clogged with a piece of sediment that’s blocking the flow of the hot or cold water. Clean out the cartridge or install a new one to get full flow again.
Why is my hot water pressure low in the shower?

Why does my shower water only come out of the left Hole?
The water was only coming out of the left hole and it was hot water. There was no cold water coming out. It’s a single handle shower and if I turn it toward cold there is plenty of pressure, but then if I move it back toward hot then at a certain point it kind of jumps a little and then loses all pressure.

Why is my shower not mixing with the shower water?
