After they put in the water heater, I turned on the kitchen sink and it ran fine at first and then dropped off. I just took your advice and removed the aerator. I didn't see anything, but the water blasted out when it was off, and it seems to be back to normal. With that in mind, do you think it would be a good idea to start by taking off the shower head and letting the water flow out the open pipe? Any other solution will require a plumber, because I just removed the cover and everything is welded back there. I wouldn't have room to work without removing tile even if I knew what I was doing.
