My shower recently started losing pressure really badly. I have changed the showerhead thinking that was it but it wasnt. Now I have noticed that the hot knob seems to be leaking a little bit. I also a few months ago changed the washeron the inside of it and all has been fine til now. If anyone has any ideas or can help on this it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Remove the stem again. Make sure that the washer is tight & that it didn't burn out already from the hot water. There is also an O ring on the stem that may have to be changed.
