Kitchen water pressure

[AbdRahim]

Still learning this coach. Anyone with a BayStar have low water pressure at the kitchen sink? Even at initial or static (Park pressure) 55 psi, the kitchen sink faucet fully open runs about pencil thickness of the water stream. I know most modern faucets have resrictors in the faucet tip. This one seems to be in the hose that the sprayer attaches to. Has anyone been able to remove it to get strong water pressure in the kitchen?

Do you have a pressure regulator between the city water and your fresh water tank? If so, what is it set to? Try 50 or 60. When is the last time your house filter was changed? Lastly, what is the pressure with water pump vs. city water?

has it always been that way for you or is this a recent development?

 

[AbdRahim]

Always. Coach is brand new, less than 4 months old. Pressure set to 55 psi. Same occurs with no regulator inline. Pressure is good in the bathroom sink. Toilet is moderate. Filters are brand new.

I’d go under the sink and remove the faucet and hose. Maybe there is a cover that Newmar forgot to remove when installing it?

don’t know this to be the case or not but there may also be a cutoff valve under the sink which is not fully disengaged. Worth a check.

There could also be construction debris obstructing the aerator.

Yes, take the aerator apart and see how it does.

When we bought our old coach every aerator was clogged (even the one on the black tank flush input). The Kitchen sink has a pull out spray head and it took some finagling but I found a screen where the wand and hose meet. Had to order replacements from Moen for that one.

Our Bay Star definitely has lower pressure at the kitchen sink than other inside faucets. But it isn’t pencil thin. It also improves when using water pump over park water. Like others said, something could be junking up the aerator.

Aerator is clean.
