Strange issue with my house water pressure.
First - there is no PRV, and no whole-house filter or softener. Copper pipes throughout the house and 3/4 inch feeds.
Started a few months ago. The pressure is fine coming into house. If I disconnect main supply from the cold supply plumbing at the hot water heater the pressure is great. It drops (at the entrance of the main supply and rest of the house) if I connect it to the rest of the house.
I disconnected the cold and hot and drained the system, replaced some joints and 90 degree elbows, and the pressure was great for about 10 days. Now it's low again. I have checked every inch of the plumbing in the house and there is no leaks or signs of leaks.
The pressure is good for around 24 hours each time I disconnect the supply and drain the pipes.
The house has two showers, two toilets, a, hot water heater, a kitchen refrigerator, a washing machine, and a dish washer.
I need some ideas
