The short answer

Housing in Hanover runs to a median build year of 1973. Pipe of that era fails in more than one way, so the useful first step is counting weak taps: every tap points at the supply, one tap points at that fixture.

Hanover has 4,904 occupied homes across 2 ZIP codes. Across all its housing, vacant units included, the median build year is 1973 — the most useful single fact for working out why the water pressure is weak, because it predicts what the supply pipe is made of.

What this site is

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.

Hanover sits 7 years newer than the MA median of 1966. Of the 176 MA towns we route calls in, its housing is older than 33% of them, and by number of homes it ranks 109th.

What 1973 tells you about the pipe in Hanover

Housing of this vintage generally means copper as the usual supply material, so corrosion narrowing the pipe is far less likely. In houses of this era a whole-house pressure drop points at the pressure-reducing valve, the main shut-off, or the supply side of the meter rather than at the pipe itself. More on 1970s supply pipe.

87% of occupied homes in Hanover are owner-occupied, 27 points above the MA figure of 60%. It matters here because the run between the meter and the house belongs to the property owner, not the utility.

Median household income across Hanover ZIP codes is $174,821, 37% above the MA median of $127,270.

Before calling anyone in Hanover, 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.
