5 Ways to Identify the Reasons Behind Low Water Pressure

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Even if the installation within your home might be sound and very professional, you will still be able to find low water pressure from time to time. That’s why you have to do all in your power in order to identify the reasons behind low water pressure and here are some of the best.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]

See where you have the issue

If it’s in the entire house, then you most likely have problems down at the water source. However, there are situations when the low water pressure is caused by problems in a specific room. If that’s the case, we recommend you to check the faucet in order to identify the problem. The faucet might be clogged or you might have to clean the aerator with a water-vinegar homemade drain cleaner.

Check the water shut off valve

This and the PRV can be one of the main reasons why you encounter low water pressure in your home. It’s important to ensure that you check these valves and see if they work properly. You can try to call a professional plumber if possible, because he will know how to identify whether there’s a problem or not in this type of situation.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]

Try to find water leaks

Many times the low water pressure cause can actually be a water leak. There might be a leak somewhere in your home or even somewhere in the vicinity. If that’s the case, there’s not that much you can do other than wait for that leak to be fixed. You should call the professionals to handle the problem as fast as possible if you want a good outcome.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]

Check the water heater

If you have a water heater then that can also be a cause for low water pressure. We recommend you to take your time and figure out whether the heater will need repairs or not. It will certainly take some time for repairs but if you do that the outcome can be great in the end.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]

Bad pressure regulators

You might actually have to deal with a bad pressure regulator as well. This will need the attention of a professional but it’s still a very good way to figure out whether it can work seamlessly or not. We recommend you to see where you have such pressure regulators inside your home and then you will have to use them the best way you can. Granted, it can be quite a challenge to repair them on your own which is why working with a professional is the right approach here.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]If you do have low water pressure it’s always important to call a plumber because he will know where to look and how to identify the problem. He also has the necessary tools that you can use in order to get the best results. Granted, finding a good plumber can be a little challenging at first but that’s why you have to work closely with them in order to get the best outcome. Do that and the results will be extraordinary in the end.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row css=”.vc_custom_1469703396591{margin-top: 40px ;}”][vc_column][vc_message message_box_style=”solid-icon” message_box_color=”turquoise” icon_fontawesome=”fa fa-phone-square”]
