Gallons per minute or gpm is the rate of water flow as measured in how many gallons of water a pump can process per minute pumps on the weaker end may have gpm ratings of 1 2 or so while pumps with gpm ratings of more than 4 are considered high volume water pumps.
This leaves bathrooms on upper floors particularly at risk of low water pressure.
Since your water heater is in the basement i m going to assume that the main water line enters through the basement as well.
The hot water faucet to the bathtub used 1 2 times week developed slow flow down about 75 but cold faucet was fine.
