Water Pressure issue

[Davemac]

I am in need of guidance/suggestions. We have a 2010 Fleetwood Fiesta 36T and we have seriously low water pressure. It is bad enough that there is no way we can take a shower in the coach. The water just trickles out. I have unhooked from Park water and used the water pump and there is no change. I have taken the pressure regulator off the Park water. Again, no change.
It is pretty frustrationg that we paid all this money and can't use the showerr in the coach.
I could really use some help here before I take it to a dealer. We are hours away from a Fleetwood dealer so if it's something I can correct I would rahter do that.
Any and all help will be greatly appreciated

is it just the shower?? or the whole coach?? can you disconnect after the pump and check for pressure? or is it maybe just a clogged shower head...

check all the screen filters at all the fixtures also coming into the coach

Agree, check the filters, also, look for a kink in the line.

Is this a new problem since being dewinterized. Maybe a valve not opened. It sounds like you are the new owner if so check manual. I would look in water hook up bay for a shut off valve since city and pump has no pressure.

Thanks, folks. I am indeed a new owner. The coach was purchased new in Oct. 2010. I have checked all the paperwork and find nothing that tells me much of anything (helpful that is).
The pressure has been low at the faucets since we bought it but we can use them OK. However we had never tried the shower before. So when my wife decided we whould try it we found out the pressure is so low there was no way you can shower in there. There are valves in the hookup area but I have no idea which way they should be turned (again, no info in the paperwork) they are labeled hot and cold low point valves

In your outside water compartment, make sure the knob is turned off for both cold and hot water. On some models this can greatly diminish your water pressure inside the coach.

You can purchase a emailed manual for $10 and a paper copy for $20 from fleetwood per their web site.

Do you have a whole house filter on the Coach? I had a low pressure problem on my RV that turned out to be a clogged filter. I tried it without the filter and the low pressure problem went away. I replaced the filter and now replace it once a year.

Try taking off the shower head that's a place to start

[Gary RVRoamer]

Since the problem appears to be in the shower only, start with the shower head. Unscrew it and see if water flows ok without it. Many heads have an adjustable flow/spray - try rotating the head and see if it changes.

Since the symptom is the same for both city water and pump, I don't think you have a problem with the city inlet or pump or any filter system you may have. Nor with the winterizing valves either - that would affect all faucets rather than just the shower.

Sounds to me like he has low pressure everywhere?

Hey Dave,

There is a valve that says something like "tank fill" and "City water."
Turn handle to "city water" to work on water pump. Also, check that the outside shower fawcets are closed tight.

My Fleetwood had water flow restrictors on all the outlets. Once I removed them i have had good water flow, also removed my water filter and that helped. But the biggest improvement was removing the flow restrictors.
