Dealing With Low Water Pressure

by | Mar 9, 2024 | Low Water Pressure, Plumber, Plumber Service

Dealing With Low Water PressureWe’ve all likely been there before – we turn on the faucet and the water pressure is low. Is it because someone is taking a shower? Did someone start a load of laundry? Is the dishwasher running? Has my plumbing gone bad? These might all be thoughts that went through your head at the time. While low water pressure is certainly an annoyance, it is fixable. The plumbing professionals at Dan’s Plumbing and Septic in the Twin Cities want to help.

There are several reasons why the pressure in your faucet might be low. First, it’s best to check multiple faucets. If the issue is present only at one fixture, then you have an isolated incident with one device. If you have the same pressure issues at multiple faucets or water sources, then you could have a more complex issue that will require a plumber’s expertise. For isolated incidents, the next check would be the water shutoff valve under the sink or toilet. Rotating it to open or on should restore flow. Water flow issues could also be related to clogs in the supply lines or at the fixture. At a sink, unscrewing the faucet tip and checking for obstacles could clear up flow. Issues with toilets, showers, laundry, or dishwashers will likely mean issues within the pipeline structures and should not be attempted to fix as a DIY project. Contact a professional plumber to help assess the issue(s) and make any necessary repairs.

What Can A Plumber Do That I Can’t?

A plumber has the knowledge and experience to analyze plumbing fixtures and assess the rate of water flow. If there are deficiencies, a plumber is certified to pull pipe components and make any necessary repairs. You may learn that there is an issue with a water pressure regulator. Perhaps there are clogs deep within the pipelines, or corrosion within the pipes. Perhaps there is a blockage affecting the entire supply. Plumbers will have all the necessary tools on hand to make these repairs with minimal disruption to your home or business.

"I have managed a mobile home park since 1988 in Anoka County. Dans Sewer Service was one of the first companies I ordered after I found how unreliable the past service was. Dans has been under contract with me ever since and has pumped our sludge tank, repaired sewer lines, cleaned out manholes, maintained sewer stacks on empty lots and has always found the time to "come when called". I highly recommend Dans Sewer Service to any commercial or private property."
