Low pressure in the water supply system does not allow to fully use household appliances and is a weak place of many old houses, somewhere from savings, or due to the impossibility of complete replacement of the pipeline, is a common occurrence. One way or another, you can try to call the housing and communal services dispatcher, and set out the problem in detail, specialists who explore the water supply and will quite find and eliminate the cause of this phenomenon on your call. If this does not help, then you will have to go to the housing and communal services yourself and write an application, register it and write down the application number (usually the secretary is doing this). Next – you are waiting for the arrival of the same specialists who, if possible, solve your problem. But if this is not in their power, and the water supply in your apartment is in good condition, then it makes sense to think about alternative options.
Installation of a pump of high water pressure. These pumps are usually installed either on the input pipe that ensures the supply of water to the apartment, or in front of the “analysis” point, where you need to increase the pressure. They are easy to install to include in the work, it is enough to make a gap in this area and cut the thread. And thanks to small sizes and noiselessness, it is practically not noticeable and allows you to install it in any room. But the pressure in the pipes, the necessary condition for the operation of such pumps should be at least 0.2 atm. Pumps, thanks to the presence of all the necessary indicators and sensors, are capable of working in automatic mode. You can completely turn it off, in this case, the water will flow freely on it.
But the use of a pumping station with a tankman-driving tank will be more effective. This method requires large costs, but is optimally suitable for apartments with weak pressure in pipelines (where the use of high pressure pumps is technically not possible) and a frequent disconnect in the water supply. This will allow you to set in your apartment almost any water pressure in the pipeline you need (the maximum allowable pressure value is 6 atm., Although in everyday life, for the good functioning of the system and satisfying the requests of all those living in the apartment, 3 atm is enough.). And also, it will provide you with a stable supply of water to the destination and some autonomy (you will depend less on the presence of water in the central water supply system). But there are negative moments-these are the bulky structure itself (it is more difficult to find a room where you can “hide” the pumping station), and some features associated with installation (due to large sizes and weight, reliable fixation of such an installation is required), as well as the presence of noise When working on the device.
