Why Low Water Pressure Isn't Normal - And What It Might Be Hiding

Hammond Services Helps South Metro Atlanta Homeowners Uncover the Real Causes of Poor Water Pressure
Low water pressure might seem like a minor inconvenience, but for many South Metro Atlanta homeowners, it's a sign of a larger plumbing issue that shouldn't be ignored. Hammond Services, a trusted provider of plumbing, HVAC, and electrical services in Newnan, Griffin, and surrounding areas, is helping residents understand what's behind weak water flow-and why it matters.

While a drop in pressure might feel like a temporary annoyance during a morning shower or while washing dishes, it could be a symptom of deeper plumbing problems that lead to costly repairs if left unaddressed.

Common Causes of Low Water Pressure in Georgia Homes:

*
Sediment and Mineral Buildup: Over time, minerals from hard water can collect in pipes, fixtures, and water heaters. This buildup gradually restricts water flow and reduces system efficiency.

*
Hidden Leaks: Even small leaks behind walls or under the slab can significantly lower water pressure. These leaks often go unnoticed until they cause property damage or spike water bills.

*
Corroded or Aging Pipes: Many homes in the South Metro Atlanta area were built decades ago, and aging galvanized steel or copper plumbing can corrode from the inside, restricting flow and leading to future pipe failure.

*
Clogged Faucet Aerators or Showerheads: In some cases, the issue is isolated to a single fixture. Calcium deposits or debris can clog screens and nozzles, leading to reduced flow that's easily fixed with cleaning or part replacement.

*
Faulty Pressure Regulators: A malfunctioning pressure regulator can cause water pressure to drop throughout the entire home. Diagnosing this issue requires a professional inspection.

If low pressure is affecting multiple fixtures or comes on suddenly, it's time to call in a professional. Hammond Services offers thorough plumbing diagnostics [https://www.hammondservices.com/plumbing] and fast repairs to help homeowners restore proper flow and protect their plumbing systems.
