If you are talking about water pressure in you home water lines, the answer is an incorrect set up of the pressure tank/pressure switch combination. I am currently working on a way to easily solve this problem. If you are interested in that solution, please go to the link below.

the pressure depends on the well pressure tank and switch. It is normally between 30 and 70 psi in a domestic well system

Does the static pressure in your pressure tank change if the pressure switch was increased?

The pressure in the tank will vary from your cutin pressure to your cutout pressure. If you increased the pressure in the system, your air-charge will now be wrong. A good rule of thumb is cutin - 2 psi.

What does water pressure mean?

Water pressure refers to the pressure of water in a system. In a home it will be 30-50 psi typically and this is governed by the municipal pressure or by a well tank.


What do high and low pressure systems have to do with wind?

A high pressure system has a weaker horizontal pressure gradient than a low pressure system, which means the atmospheric pressure varies widely in a low pressure system and doesn't vary much in a high pressure system. The wind speed depends on the strength of the horizontal pressure gradient.On a meteorological map, the horizontal pressure gradient is marked with isobars, which are lines with match the points with the same atmospheric pressure. A high pressure system is characterized by widely spaced isobars while low pressure systems are noted by tightened close isobars.A high pressure system may have an air pressure of 1028 hPa in his core and 1013 hPa in its periphery: the air pressure varies about 16 hPa. A low pressure system may have an air pressure of 987 hPa in its core and 1013 in its periphery : the air pressure varies about 26 hPa. So, the winds will be very light and even non-existent in a high pressure system while the winds will be very strong and even turbulent in a low pressure system.

What is the normal operating pressure cartridge pool filter?

Pressure can vary greatly from one system to another. It's best to record pressure immediately after cleaning the filters. This will be your base pressure. When the pressure rises 10-15 psi above the base rate, it is time to clean the filters.


While taking shower you start with strong pressure then loose pressure during shower?

1st are you on a city system or well system? City system is due to usage by others at the same time. Try changing time you shower to see if that makes a difference. (Peak Time) usage lowers pressure on the grid Well system is due to capacity of your pressure tank. Once pump starts to refill the tank, most pumps drop about 20-30 pounds of pressure. Hope this helps
