Should the water pressure in the sprayer be low (1/3 volume of the pot filler)? Ours is showing this.

No, mine is really good. Make sure the main valve is fully open and the pot filler valve is fully closed.

Using the sprayer while the pot filler valve is open will result in a dramitic decrease in pressure. My advise when using the sprayer is to make sure the valve on the pot filler is closed. I've installed this product in 3 applications and concluded a consistent issue with the pressure from the sprayer. Overall I found this product to far superior to other similar products.

I've found that the pressure in both the sprayer and the pot filler to be equally great! If I need less flow I can always adjust it at the nozzle.

It seems most of you have an earlier model that actually has a valve on the pot filler. The one I have just has the one lever valve at the base of the faucet and the water pressure on the sprayer is horrible. Even taking off the sprayer head still has very low pressure. The sprayer is practically useless for us.

Note that the company has changed the design.....the valve control on the pot-filler has been removed; there is only the main control now. Opening the sprayer stops the flow of water to the pot-filler.

The water pressure for me is just as strong as the pot filler. I find that the water pressure drops a tad bit, only if the pot filler and the sprayer are on at the same time. Otherwise, the pressure on both the sprayer and the pot filler is very very good. Hope that helps.

I think it only happens when you run low on pressure. Do not try to get every last drop out. Pump it up and it will spray good. This model has a filter at the tip which should help spray even.

Mine has gotten a little tight. I try to put sicon spray on it. The crank can get messed up if yiu crank it past the 10ft mark or crank it lower than the lowest setting. Try to avoid that

I found the pressure to be very low. I ended up removing the sprayer and the shower head and getting a new showerhead that I liked better. It doesn't have the sprayer and hose, though. I do like the ability to adjust the temperature on the volume control.

Adjust the position of the hose weight per the instructions. That should fix it.

I have not noticed a drop in pressure, I don't use the drip system. I find the units work very well with small sprinkler nozzles.

The sprayer mode does not really increase the pressure like a normal separate sprayer would. This is a bit annoying, but overall there is good pressure.

Ours sprays like a squirt gun and doesn't seem to have any issues. Also doesn't seem to be any adjustment. Hope that helps

If you putting the water amount according to the manual than you doing everything OK. In this case something is wrong with the cooker. I am so far very happy with this unit. Thanks. Lou.

It may be possible the nozzle has blockage or it may be the cap is not tightened correctly. It may also be a washer is missing, it's hard to see. I had a problem with the sprayer dripping when I wanted to drain the sprayer into the canister. The problem was I didn't relieve the pressure by removing the canister before squeezing the trigger. That was the only problem I had. I can't give you a more technical assessment, if you are like me, I tend to peruse the instructions, so did have to go back and read them carefully. I'm sure you've thought of most of these things but good luck. I liked It may be possible the nozzle has blockage or it may be the cap is not tightened correctly.

Sorry I didn't have this problem. Are you turning the water flow to the sprayer off after use? Mine leaks some if I don't. Good luck!

Sorry, I have never had the problem of low water pressure ...... I've always used my Gilmour sprinkler (without problems) w/sufficient water pressure.

Yes, this is an issue. When I use it, I slowly turn the dial and stop when the pressure is sufficient. Please note that the water will not come out immediately when you start turning the dial. It takes some time to build sufficient pressure for the nozzle to start spraying the water. You should get the right dial position with a bit trial and error.

Make sure all connections are screwed in real tight, otherwise air will escape and you won't be able to reach any pressure. When I first had my pump, I hadn't tightened all of the connections adequately and it was as if the pump didn't work. Once the connections were all tight, then the pump worked fine and we were able to fill the cylinder to the necessary 3,000 psi. Hope that helps!

What have you tried? And, don't make yourself crazy. It might have a defect . I love mine. I put in my favorite oil 1/3 way full, pumped it up until I felt resistance and it sprayed just fine.

It appears that there is a flow restrictor in the spray head at the point where it attaches to the hose. I experienced unacceptably low water flow immediately after installing this faucet, so I took another look and discovered the flow restrictor. I removed the O-Ring and the little plastic part with holes in it...then reinstalled the spray head. My water flow is now just right. I went from about .9 gallons per minute to about 1.33 gpms after removing these parts.

I don't know, I don't have a problem with mine. Maybe there is built up sediment in your tank and sprayer. I hope that this helps. I also have a filter for the water on mine.
