What is the age of the house? What material is the pipe from the street? (The house is 58 years old, but the bathrooms were part of an addition that was done about 10 years ago. I don’t know what the pipe material is from the street)

You are not observing pressure, but rather flow. (Right, the flow is low.)

You need a pressure guage to meausre the pressure. Have you checked with the water company to see what the pressures are in your area? (The water co. said the pressure in our area is 35-50psi. I don’t have a gauge to verify this)

One common cause for these problems is old galvanized pipes that have mineral deposites over the years. (But wouldn’t pressure be low all of the time, through all faucets?)

But there can be other reasons such as debree blocking a valve or low water company pressure (How common is that?)
