Low Water Pressure in Lyons, CO

A lever ball valve and a wheel-handled gate valve on the same run of pipe

PressureTrace is a referral service, not a plumbing contractor. We connect homeowners with independent contractors. Contractors are required to hold whatever credential their state or municipality demands. Every state page sets out who licenses plumbers there and where to check, so you can confirm before work begins. We do not perform plumbing work, we do not set prices, and we never charge homeowners anything — the contractors in our network pay us when we route them a call.

Lyons has 1,993 occupied homes across 1 ZIP code, and the typical one was built in 1983. That year is the most useful single fact for working out why the water pressure is weak, because it predicts what the supply pipe is made of.

Lyons sits 7 years older than the CO median of 1990. Of the 93 CO towns we route calls in, its housing is older than 69% of them, and by number of homes it ranks 59th.

What 1983 tells you about the pipe in Lyons

Housing of this vintage generally means copper throughout in most cases, with polybutylene fitted in some homes built from the late seventies onward. Polybutylene was discontinued in the mid-nineties and is worth identifying, because its failures are sudden rather than gradual. More on 1980s supply pipe.

86% of occupied homes in Lyons are owner-occupied, 5 points above the CO figure of 81%. It matters here because the run between the meter and the house belongs to the property owner, not the utility.

Median household income across Lyons ZIP codes is $136,109, 31% above the CO median of $103,819.

Before calling anyone in Lyons, check whether every tap is weak or just one. Normal supply is 45–80 psi and under 40 psi is low — how to test it in a minute. Whole house is a supply problem worth a call; one tap is usually a five-minute job you can do yourself.
