Maintaining 18 Episode 30
The Kholer Katun takes center stage and delivers a 2.2-gallon performance. The Katun is rated at 1.2 GPM from the factory. The rise of Katun to this level is covered in this presentation and in the presentations linked below. The performance of the faucet is restored to the best ever witnessed. This was done by removing the flow restrictor, which is located deep into the housing. In the video, Kofi walks viewers through the disassembly highlighting troublesome portions.
The gallon per minute (GPM) rating will be affected. After removing the restrictor, when the level is in the middle and opened to its maximum position, after 27 seconds, 1 gallon was measured, giving a GPM of 2.22.

Background:
The faucet did not function well from the beginning. It was installed after installing new plumbing. Debris in the pipe clogged the flow restrictor on first use, reducing the performance to a trickle. Guess how long this issue was suffered. I look forward to reading the answers in the comments.
Tools:
Allen Key - 3/32
Wrench with Socket 7/8 (deep socket preferable)
Needle Nose Pliers
Screw driver with flat head
