Low Water Pressure

What's some of the things I should check regarding low water pressure? Hooked up to campground water with my adjustable water pressure regulator. Have it set at 50 psi. Kitchen sink seems really slow but when I put it on sprayer it's strong. I took off the adjustable and put on your basic regulator. No difference in pressure which surprised me. Bathroom sink it's hard to tell cuz it's aerated and seems fine. Also the shower is fine as we have an Oxygenics shower head. I wouldn't think there's a kink anywhere but I could be wrong. Don't want to remove the panel to find out, lol. We've had this rig three years and I don't remember it being this slow in the kitchen. Been at this campground before many times. I think the pressure's the same when I try the water pump. Guess I should check that out as well. Any suggestions on what to check or do?

Checked the simple stuff? Is there an aerator screen in kitchen faucet that needs cleaned?

Just a thought.

Good luck,

Do you have a kink in the supply hose somewhere? What does it do if you take the regulator off and connect directly (for test purposes)?

Is the kitchen faucet the ONLY plumbing fixture with low flow?

"Kitchen sink seems really slow but when I put it on sprayer it's strong.": seems to an internal problem within the kitchen faucet, and not a system wide problem.

Yes. Toilet flows fine, like I said bathroom sink is fine but it's aerated. Shower is nothing great but Oxygenics shower head does good. You could be right, could be the fixture.

I'm not sure this applies to yours but on our Pinnacle Jayco used a bunch of white flexible tubing for the hook ups behind the panel. I found one of them badly kinked. You will have to remove an access panel to see them, at least I did.

Yea, that's what I'm afraid of. Not good at removing all that stuff but I'm gonna have to check that out. Thanks.
