Core Plumbing Repairs & Troubleshooting
Water Pressure Issues
Plumbing issues you are facing:
- Weak flow from multiple fixtures throughout the home
- Excessive pressure causing banging pipes or leaking fixtures
- Pressure that varies dramatically between fixtures
- Aerators and showerheads clogging frequently with sediment
- New appliances (dishwasher, washing machine) not filling properly
- Pressure suddenly drops when multiple fixtures are used
- Hissing sounds at faucets or pressure regulator
What D&H PLUMBERS fixes:
- Test static and working pressure at multiple points in the system
- Inspect pressure-reducing valve (PRV) for failure or improper adjustment
- Check for partially closed main shutoff or hidden gate valves
- Identify corroded pipes or scale buildup restricting flow
- Replace failed PRVs or install new regulators where needed
- Adjust pressure to optimal range (45-60 PSI for most homes)
- Verify all fixtures receive consistent, adequate pressure
