I always see complaints about low water pressure but now it has hit me. I have been doing good but now with 50psi coming in we have low water pressure in the shower. At the same time I am hearing a buzzing or whistling sound coming from the area of the water pump/ HWH. Could there be a check valve there or some other fitting that could have caught a piece of debris cutting my flow? I am afraid to open any fittings right now. We are living in the motor home at a job for the next two weeks and I cannot be without water in case I break something. Can anyone think of a test I can do without opening the pipes? TIA....
When my pressure drops I go look at the cheapie camco water filter. It normally means it’s time to be replaced. I’m considering building a filter that will give me better flow.

I started to have low water pressure in the shower only until it completely stopped. I had water everywhere else. I took the wand off and there was a washer with 3 holes in it. I took the washer out and it was night and day with water pressure. The problem then was it was using way too much water. I think a happy medium is to drill the holes out bigger and put back in the wand.
Not sure if this is your problem but worth trying.
