    For the last month or so I've noticed that we are having an issue with our water pressure in our home. The water pressure is drastically reduced when someone is showering and the kitchen sink is on or any other faucet in the house.

    Does anyone know what could be wrong or know of any good quality plumbers who are reasonably priced?

    Im not sure what is wrong or how to fix it, but there is no doubt its Trumps fault.

    Trump is using massive quantities of American water to run fountains at his golf clubs around the world causing shortages across the US.

    Trump is colluding with some foreign government to reduce water pressure around the country.

    [JuanValdez] long post about how this is actually a more systemic issue where Trump is just the latest part of a long puzzle that has led to low water pressure [/JuanValdez]

    Check the valve first. call the utility company about the pressure. no need a plumber unless you find a leak.

    The water pressure from the mainline into the house is fine. I have noticed that if I bypass my water softner, i have no issues with the water pressure but the quality of the water is no good because there are particles and such in the water.

    Speaking of pressure in the house -- is Pelosi making the right choice moving forward with impeachment?

    Rumor has it Trump colluded with Hitler to take down the country with a devious low water pressure scheme that has taken about 75 years for the plan to be implemented.

    I actually had to do a re-pipe of my house because the builder used cheap Chinese galvanized piping in the original build. We got two or three pin hole leaks in the ceilings, eventually bringing down a 8'x8' section. it was like $10K. When they took the old pipe down, a lot of it was less than half the cross section because of sediment build up.

    Obviously this was an issue that was addressed under Scott Pruitt's EPA, please forward your requests to the acting head of that agency.

    Trade your leaky pipes to BoB. You might get a 3rd pick for them.

    be thankful your water doesn't have lead. Or does it?
