The problem is just the two fixtures. Both are temp reg & I've changed the cartridge in the Kohler. One has a water restriction disc; the other doesn't. I've attached the shower head to the bath faucet= great flow.

Is the problem isolated to those two fixtures? Do they have water restriction discs just before the shower outlet and faucet outlet? Are both temperature regulating faucets? If so I suspect that hard water has built up deposits on the internal workings. If so take the innards out and clean them.

yes, we have gate valves in the plumbing bay. That will be next. Looks rather challenging to get the panel off.

Do you have a similar set up, and is it possible one, or more valves are partially closed, or clogging up? Just another thought.....
