It's a hot day. You had errands to run and you're finally home to take a nice, cool shower. You switch on the faucet. The water sputters and then flows; but the flow has poor pressure and you're forced to shower with a dripping and dribbling water flow from your showerhead, instead of a comfortable, pressurized jet of cool water. Does this scenario sound familiar to you?

Hidden opportunities at home - how to solve your water pressure woes

This is just one of the uncomfortable scenarios related to water usage at home. Poor water pressure doesn't only affect showering. Washing machines take longer to fill up, a dishwasher's performance is negatively affected, and even washing your hands becomes a time-consuming task, as you struggle to rinse the soap off because there just isn't enough water coming out of the pipes.

On the other hand, you should also be wary of high-water pressure as this can put a lot of unnecessary strain on your home's plumbing system, often leading to loosened joints or pinhole leaks in the pipes. Such drips and leaks often cause damage out of sight, behind walls, in ceilings, and in floors, causing mold, rot, and odour.

When water pressure is too high, water is wasted. On the other hand, when it is too low, it can take twice as long to complete a task which also ends up wasting water.

A recent qualitative study conducted in Dubai in 2022 revealed some of the most common pain-points associated with water transfer and water pressure, that individuals and households face today. The majority of the grievances identified were factors associated with water leakage, poor water pressure, loud pump noise, durability of the water pumps and lack of information and guidance when selecting the right water pump for their home.

Such concerns showcase the usage patterns and behaviours amongst various households, whether it may reflect in the form of high utility bills, the need to call a plumber every now and then, or even damage to your property. Such apprehensions make you wonder what you can do to resolve your water pressure problems and whether there is an opportunity to optimise your water consumption.
