    A while back I discovered that the previous owner had turned down the pressure regulator.  I turned it up a bit to what felt like "normal".  Only guess as to why he did it was to lower the risk of pipes bursting but only guessing.
    Our regulator was next to a shutoff valve that we have near the house, not the one at the street.

    Our hose spigot was underpowered – turned out my son had not opened the valve ALL the way when we sent him under to open them in Spring.  Once we opened it up I had hose power again.

    With that in mind, are you sure your various water valves are all the way open?  Start at the meter, move to house, check under sinks…

    does anyone's water pressure seem sub-standard? ours has always been.  trying to find a shower head that actually propels the water our has been impossible.  if i turn our garden hose on our kitchen sink will almost drip when turned on full.
