What causes low water pressure, and how can it be fixed?

1. Clogged Pipes: Mineral buildup restricts flow. Fix: Professional cleaning or pipe replacement.
2. Leaks: Even small leaks reduce pressure. Fix: Find and repair leaks.
3. Old Fixtures: Outdated faucets and showerheads slow water flow. Fix: Replace fixtures.
4. Main Water Supply Issues: Whole-home pressure issues may be due to the main supply. Fix: Check the main valve or contact your water provider.
5. Pressure Regulator: If it’s faulty, pressure drops. Fix: Adjust or replace the regulator with a plumber’s help.
