The Moen single handle pull down kitchen faucets, such as the Essie or Arbor--- is it possible to replace the built-in hot & cold water supply hoses?? I just replaced my 2009 faucet because over the past year the hot water flow was drastically reduced. I knew that the flow from my pipes was strong, so I figured it was the cartridge, so I replaced it. But that did nothing. Ended up buying a new faucet, so I took apart the old one because I wanted to find out what was causing the low flow. It turned out that where the hot water supply hose connects inside the base of the faucet, it was clogged up with bits of what appeared to be rubber (perhaps a small washer where it connects?) Anyway, my question is this --- on these types of faucets where the hoses are built-in at the factory, is there anyway to remove the hose and replace it? I tried to remove the hose (just to see if I could since I was performing an autopsy on the thing) and I could not remove it.
