Default Increase water pressure in old neighbor hood home

increasing the pressure will no doubt increase the risks for leaks....

since the problem is just one shower.

does the shower head have a flow restrictor in it?

is poor flow just hot or just cold?

could be a clogged shower head, galvanized generates particles of rust
that can clog things.

bad shower valve somehow?


My shower has been slow, because of a deteriorated washer in the hot water
valve. Bits of rubber would break off and got stuck in the shower head.
