Question for Plumbers?
Ok I'm putting in some new sinks and faucets. I have copper water lines in my house, but I guess right there at the wall leading to the sink is galvanized. They seem to be pretty corroded. Last week I shut off the water at the meter to replace some shut off valves. I come back in the house and turn on a sink (one that I was not working on) to make sure the water was back on. It was fine. Pressure was good out of that faucet for 10 seconds, then..bam, it was reduced to a trickle and still is. Then last night I finally hooked up the faucets, etc to the new shut offs. Got it all hooked up, turned it all on (of course the water was all greenish brown for a second), decent water pressure then...bam, nothing. I mean it just drips coming out of there. What's up with this? did some of that corroded junk come free and get lodged somewhere? I geuss these just need replaced. Are they usually threaded onto the copper or what?
All lines in my house are original..approx. 57 years old
I would remove your aerators from your faucets and then turn your water on at the faucet to see if you get your pressure back. I have the same kind of pipes. I just bought this house three months ago and replaced all the faucets. I always remove my aerators before turning the water back on. I bet if you clean out your aerators you'll have pressure again. Hope this helps!!!!!
