Comment on Does different parts of the world use different standards for water pressure similar to voltages?

In europe they mostly use Bars as the unit of measurement.

Mostly water pressure is around 1-2 bars as a minimum, but there are still places using different standards, for example the old style gravity-fed UK watersystems with sub 1 bar pressure, but those are not very common anymore.

Most domestic sanitary products in the EU are designed to be used on 1-5 bar pressure.

I read somewhere the domestic water pressure to be between 4-6 bar, however not sure how realistic it is accross the whole EU and also what you got at the mains and what you got when opening the faucet is two different numbers.
