Low water pressure or low water flow?
PipeDown is probably on the money. I had the same problem with my house
and replaced the water line with PVC. No more problems. Wait about 5 minutes with no water running. This way your pressure will be equalized throughout the system. Then open up the kitchen faucet. If you immediately have high pressure, and then you can watch the pressure drop, you will know that there is blockage somewhere....ie in galvanized pipes(Just like a kink in a garden hose). If when you open the kitchen faucet you do not notice any decrease in pressure, I would think it would be a bad regulator or some other problem besides clogged pipes. Pat |
