Are you using a filter? Could be clogged. Did you have good pressure before you hooked up?

Do you have a faucet pressure regulator? Is it working? Do you have pressure coming out of the hose before it enters the MH? Also check water filter, remove and see if pressure increases.

Probably a kink in the hose when you rolled it up to leave.

On my coach there is a screen located at the city water connection. Every once in a while it gets clogged and the city water pressure drops.

Screens were filled in brown sludge, also my main filter was filled same stuff. Switched filed and cleaned screens all seems good. Hope doesn’t effect aqua hot.

the exact reason I use an outside inline CAMCO filter at the hose bib. No inside filters for me.

I would put about 8 ounces of 3% peroxide in the fresh water tank and run water through each faucet, hot and cold , enough for a couple gallons per faucet to help sanitize
Also sanitize your filter housing with a bleach solution
Sounds like iron bacter8

Perfect type of water conditions for a prefilter and water softener. Any of the minerals entering the MH, and they are, will start damaging faucet fixture, toilet mechanisms, refrigerators water and ice maker valves, etc. That one I learned the hard way.
My setup is not as elaborate as some, but it works and I no longer have water problems. I use a simple water test meter to see if the CG has good or bad water upon arrival. Then I can judge how often to check the prefilter. https://www.amazon.com/Quality-Magic...70_&dpSrc=srch
