Turn up the Pressure.

In most scenarios in life this may not be a good idea, but if your water department can’t deliver more pressure and you have a 3/4-in. or bigger copper or plastic water main coming into your house, you might consider installing a water pressure booster.  This will take the water coming in from the street and increase its pressure by means of an electric pump and a pressure tank.

A dial on top adjusts the pressure to a much more ideal setting of 45 to 55 psi (which stands for pound force per square inch.) The tank holds a reserve of pressurized water so that the pump doesn’t have to run every time somebody opens a faucet.  It also helps boost flow when the demand for water is high.
