My fresh water system slowly looses pressure and must recharge somewhat frequently (about every 30 minutes or so). Until recently the system would only need to pressure up when water was being used in the galley or heads. When this happened a couple of years ago, I had a leak in one of the lines. It was obvious. I could hear it hissing which led me to the location and a repair was made.
This time I can't hear or see a leak in the pressure side of the system. Is it possible that I have water leaking back into the other side of the pump and the static water storage? How would I troubleshoot the system to determine the problem? I don't know the age of the current system. It's quite possibly as old as the boat or 27 years.
