Dealing with low water pressure can be frustrating but there are plenty of taps to combat the impacts! Here’s our top 10 low pressure bathroom taps.

Matt Black Bathroom Tap

Having low water pressure in your home can have a big impact. Low water pressure can affect the quality of your shower experience as well as take longer to fill up your sink or other receptacles for day to day tasks such as washing up. There are plenty of things that contribute to low pressure in households such as inadequate plumbing facilities, blocked or broken plumbing facilities or your water mains being too small. Low water pressure is normally a measurement of 0.3 bar and below.

Whilst they may not solve your low pressure issue, specialised low pressure bathroom taps can help combat the impacts of low pressure in your home. Low pressure bathroom taps do not limit the amount of water flow coming through your tap, which means you get the full amount of water flow. You can also get low pressure shower heads too!
