Question Low water pressure in kitchen faucet after replacing water heater

After replacing our water heater last night...we have no water pressure in our kitchen faucet (both hot and cold); however, there is water pressure in all other facets and toilets through out our house. Can some one help advise what is going on...?

Default Low Water Pressure

Are you having low water pressure all over the house of just couple spots and is it just the hot lines?

probrably debri from the change of heater, shavings of metal or plastic, or even a chunk of glue if used, if the kitchen sink is the path of least resistance, then you should have junk in the airator, anyone can do it.
