How to Defeat Low Water Pressure in Your Home

Low water pressure is a common annoyance in homes, but it is also relatively easy to fix. First and foremost, you must figure out if the problem is local to one faucet or if the problem is extended throughout your home. If it is just one faucet that is showing signs of low water pressure, a lot of the time you can clean the sediment from the faucet and the pressure will be back to normal again.

However, if the problem is one that is affecting all of the faucets in your home then the problem calls for a little digging. The Internet is a place of immense knowledge and experience. Plumbers are sharing their knowledge with the world every day on the Internet and there is a lot to learn from this information. Continue reading to learn the ways you can try and fix low water pressure along with preventing it in your home before calling a professional.

The Reasons Behind Low Water Pressure

low water pressureThere are a few different reasons your water pressure could be low. In addition to a clogged faucet, water valve issues are also a relatively easy fix. There are two shut-off valves that control your water pressure. These should both be completely open, and if they aren’t, that is when you begin to notice water pressure issues.

Simply open the valves to have your water pressure restored. If this isn’t the case and you are still having pressure issues, the problem could be a more intricate one and require the help and hands-on experience of a professional plumber.

No matter how much information you read about your water line, a lot of this work is easier to read about than actually executed. When it comes to things like corroded plumbing, a failing pressure regulator or an insufficient main supply line, these are all problems that an expert can fix in no time flat. Save yourself the headache and call in a professional for these issues.

How Plumbers Fix Low Water Pressure

When a plumber is called to inspect your water pressure he will be looking for a few different causes for the low water pressure. If he finds that the water pressure regulator has stopped working, then he will need to replace this. Fortunately, a water pressure regulator is an easy fix, but it still one that should be done by a professional. If it turns out the problem is in corroded or leaking pipes, this is more of an issue.

Nothing a plumber won’t be able to handle, but he will most likely have to repipe your water system. This may take a little longer and cost a little more, but the good news is that when it’s done, the new piping should last you for many years to come. Most of the time, the answer to the problem is more simple than it appears, but you won’t know for sure until you call in a plumber to investigate.

How to Prevent Low Water Pressure

Keeping your pipes cleaned of clogging will not only keep your water pressure working smoothly, but it will ensure the life of your piping system for years to come.

Even routine maintenance can’t guarantee you will never have an issue though, so it is best to keep a trusted plumber close by to answer any questions you might have about your water pressure. Staying on top of a simple issue such as this will save you money in the end.
