Most likely cause & what to check
1
Check with your water supplier for a known supply issue in your area.
2
Ensure your stop tap under the kitchen sink is fully open.
3
Check the outside stop tap is also fully open.
4
If you have a cold water storage tank in the loft, check the ball valve isn't stuck.
5
Check for any visible leaks — a leak can cause whole-house pressure loss.
