Any time two or more fixtures are being used at the same time the water in one becomes non existence immediately.Each side of the duplex has its own full bathroom, water heater and kitchen sink.The duplex is on a concrete slab.I cannot find the shutoff valve (except for the city shutoff valve) or the prv (I'm assuming there's not one).The water supply line is 3/4 and cutting a hole in the wall I discovered the lines feeding the fixtures are 1/2.City has came out everything is good on their end and they place a pressure gauge on external tap and said its lowI checked faucet aeratorsthe 3/4 main supply is cpvc and everything else is copperThe water bill is not high so I assume there are no leaksA plumber is suggest converting the lines that are 1/2 to 3/4 until it gets to the fixture.
