RE: [DIY] Low Water pressure from private well

 

if your house is old and you have galvinized pipes they are not likely to get clean with any sort of backflush. the minerals in the water will have reacted with the galvinizing and will have caused major rust and corrosion over the years..replacing any galvinzed piping is likely the best approach.

Subject: [DIY] Low Water pressure from private well

 
I have searched through these posts and recall seeing one that suggested backflushing the pipes due to age and possible sediment (my house was not lived in for about a year and it is old to begin with).

Can anyone give me feedback or their techniques?

My pressure is low throughout the house and if someone flushes a toilet the kitchen sink would slow down to a trickle. The overall house pressure is slow.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
