Water pressure

Water at ALL faucets both inside and out is very low. Checked water from city water - fine. Water regulator is good. Set at 55. Not much pressure coming out of any faucets both inside and out. Any ideas? I even turned the screen around going into trailer to push the back flow valve in like I do when pumping into the fresh tank. No difference.

Sounds to me like a valve may be partially closed. Either that or a clog somewhere.

You might access behind the water panel and check water supply lines for kinks.

I would try it without the regulator. It is not uncommon for regulator to clog up and cause a low water flow condition. ~CA

I've had something as simple as the small screen at the water hook up clogged. This especially happened when I used a new charcoal water filter, I even ran quite a bit of water through it before usage.

Your reading pressure when you most likely have a volume problem. Much different.
You can good pressure but if you have a partially closed valve or a kink in a line, you will not get the volume you want. Check for both. Remember, the lines in an RV are usually 1/2 inch so don't expect too much.

I had a water pressure problem in our 2021 Jay Feather 22RK. replaced the pump head which seemed to help for a while but slowly did the same thing. Upon trying to correct a problem with the lower drawer in the bedroom, I discovered that the water outlet line for the water pump (not pec) was underneath the pec line from the bathroom sink and pinched almost closed. I re-routed the flexible line from the water pump away from the pec line and so far water pressure is greatly improved...... hope this helps.

Try the hookup without the regulator. There is a park in Albert Lea at check in they tell you not to use a regulator.

First disconnect from your rv. Turn on your water and see if your pressure is good coming out from hose firstif not check your water filter connected may need to be replaced. If it is then check your screen at your inlet and see if clogged, also check your water filter in side your rig, might need to be replaced also. Then I would check your water lines see if you have a leak or a kinked line.

What’s it like using the water pump… better, worse or about the same??

Had a similar issue in my coach. Here is what I did and found. After testing and getting the same results using the water pump I used my compressor and blew out my lines (like I do for winterization). This blew calcium out of my system. I also found a lot of calcium build up in my kitchen faucet strainer and cleaned. I had a problem with calcium build up (I do not use a water softener). My guess is that you may have a similar issue. Good luck and let us know how it goes.

FOUND THE ISSUE! It was actually the "fairly new" water regulater. Took it off and pressure is just fine. Guess I'll have to once again purchase a new one.

Don't just buy the cheap inline type.
This one is the best.

^^^What he said^^^. There are look-alike cheapo versions, but Renator is what we have and has been working perfectly for several years.

That is the exact one I've purchased 3 times already. I'm sure it has something to do with our water and it's "stuff" in it. I'm going to clean mine like I do the coffee pot to see if that works. If not, a new one every year.

Have you taken apart and cleaned them???
Also, maybe time for a water filter?
