we have a well and our current pressure is a joke. wondering if this would help at all?

I think it would. I'm on a well too, though not bad pressure (i can run a garden hose), but the trickle wash from the original shower head was so weak, I figured I'd try this one and it's been great. my shower went from a 3 to a 9 with no other adjustments to the system.

My apartment has terrible water pressure as well, and without this shower head it was little more than a trickle. The original shower head didn't project water at all, it just ran more like a faucet. Once I installed this head the difference was dramatic and it will easily spray all the way to the back of the tub and beyond if you're not careful. It's still not as satisfying as a shower with normal/high water pressure, but it's worth it's weight in gold if that's not a possibility. I would recommend it!

Actually I think it improved our water pressure. We have a well and our water pressure is very limited. I think it worked better after I installed the new head. There is a water restrict or inside the head that I removed for our shower and left in for the kids.....I didn't notice a significant diff.

You should have a pressure gauge on your well and I can highly recommend this ro unit.

NO for us. We are on a well and have better pressure than most in our area. My shower head has a setting for water saver that was unusable with the hose that came with it. The pressure is better with this hose than with our previous short hose.

I have my own well so my water pressure fluctuates as the pressure rises and falls. This sprinkled worked fine for me in those changing conditions.

Hi I hope you enjoy the heater as much as I do. I have a well so I put well water in it any water should work

I use it as a whole house filter and didn't notice any pressure drop. I'm sure it will as the filter clogs, but nothing now. I only have 35 pounds and it seems the same as before.

I am not an expert. I have mine hooked up to the Natural Gas company line that has a meter on it. I think it reduces the pressure.

The water pressure is good, will be close to the actual pressure that you have with maybe a little bit of improvement. nothing noticeable for me.

No. I would recommend the well system unit. This would work on a well but the life would be severely lessened due to high iron levels.

Provided you have 80psi or higher at your water source. It won't boost water pressure.

Pressure is controlled by your faucet handle. I have my own well so it has all the ups and downs of a pump system. This has never proved to be a problem. The longer I have the system the more I appreciate it. I am an older person with severe mobile limitations so this system has proved to be crucial to my hygeine needs.

It's definitely worth a shot. As long as the leak isn't too big, it should get the job done. You definitely won't find a cheaper fix.

No, the holding tank should be able to hold a fixed pressure +/- a few PSI for hours. Make sure you are using a thread locker to seal your connections.

The valve is battery operated, so I see no reason why it should not work with your lower pressure. You may have to set it for a longer water duration time to get the amount of water you want.

if you have a well and you don't have good pressure don't get it. I you do I recommend it

Yes, I have it on my well system, hooked it up last week, and everything appears normal, no drop in pressure or volume. We have extremely hard water (24 gpg), and we have a water softener on the hot water side of our supply The shower walls appear better already, water appears to bead more, and drinking water has no smell or off tastes. If you're not handy with plumbing, I would recommend that you hire someone to do the install.
