Low water pressure in kitchen of 2007 3295RK

Has anyone experienced low water pressure at the sink faucet in their 3295RK ? I have checked for obstructions, strainers, bent plastic piping etc. Much more pressure in the shower and at the bathroom/bedroom sink then in the Kitchen sink. Possibly Keystone has used an "energy efficient" faucet in the kitchen. Seems to have better pressure when using Pump as opposed to campground connection.

Thanks EJH

When you say you checked for 'strainers' did that include the end of the faucet...my rig had a flow restrictor on every faucet.

EJH, take the kitchen sink sprayer out and where metal hose goes into the sprayer head you should see a pair of flat areas for a wrench. If you have them first try doing it by hand otherwise use an adjustable wrench. Take the hose off the faucet and look in the end of the sprayer head, you should see a white disc in there, take a screw driver and carefully pop that disc out, then look farther down the hole you should see a thing that looks like a small white inverted top hat, if it is there take a long dry wall screw and screw it into the hole and pop that plastic piece out. Then take a drill bit that just fits into the top hat piece and drill the end hole out. Then reassemble the faucet and try it. This is what I did and it made a huge difference. It still won't be as good as the bathroom sink or shower but it really helps. I took the restrictors out of both those units also... Dave

That was my next move, taking apart the faucet assembly, assuming they used a restricted type unit in the kitchen, I already cleaned the faucet aerator and that helped a little. Thanks for the replies
