1. You may be connected to a city water supply that does not have pressure that is high enough for your household needs. You may be able to contact the city to discuss your problem, or install a pressure boosting system if the city is unable to raise your pressure. 2. The piping to your house may be too small, a valve may be partially closed or your piping may have iron/mineral deposits inside which present a significant restriction to the flow of water. When this is the case, water will usually have very good flow and pressure for the first second or so then quickly taper off. The solution can be as simple as opening a valve or as complex as cleaning the deposits and scale from your existing piping or even replacing your piping. 3. If you have your own well and pump then the pressure could be low for one or several reasons. Your well or booster pump could be in need of repair/replacement or the pressure switch that controls how much pressure you have is not adjusted or functioning properly. Lastly, your well or well pump may not be not yielding enough water to supply your needs.

Pipe corrosion can be caused by a number of things, almost all of which are related to water quality, including: chemicals in the water, the pH of the water, the amount of oxygen in the water, the temperature of the water, and the water pressure and the speed at which the water moves through the pipes.

If you think you have a leak in your home, there's an easy way you can check. Go out to your water meter and record the level. Make sure no one uses any water for a few hours, then go back and check the meter again (it's easiest to do this when everyone goes to bed, then check it again first thing in the morning). If the level has changed, you probably have a leak — Book us online to have it taken care of right away!
