Water Pressure Repair in Denver

Why is My Water Pressure Low?

Low water pressure in your kitchen sink, shower or elsewhere occurs for several reasons. Most commonly, you may simply not have your water intake valves open all the way! When these valves are partially closed, your water has to sacrifice some of its pressure pushing past them to get into your home. Make sure your water intake valves are fully open, especially near the water meter. You should also make sure you have completely opened your indoor main water valve to maximize the flow of water into your home’s plumbing.

If you only experience pressure problems in a single fixture, then the restriction could be within the fixture itself. Directly inspect a problematic fixture for clogs and clean it out thoroughly. Old fixtures may need to be replaced. If you’re experiencing low water pressure in every fixture throughout your house, on the other hand, then something could be restricting flow through the main water line. Call Applewood to inspect and clear out blockages in your water main line.
