My water pressure or water volume has been decreasing over time, what is causing this problem?

We will discuss a few of the major reasons for this problem.

  • Many homes have pressure-regulating devices installed; occasionally they need adjustment or replacement to work properly. 
  • A leak in your service line may be the culprit. A leak never goes away but it does steadily get larger, the larger the leak the less water volume and pressure you may see in your home.
  • On occasion debris may build up in your plumbing especially in the aerators/strainers of your faucets and water using appliances. Periodic cleaning of all of your faucets, laundry machines, dishwashers, shower heads, hot water tank and other water using devices will help to keep them clean and to give them a longer service life to you and your family.
