No Water Pressure in Brand New Trailer

2012 Palomino T-245. Picked it up from dealership where they had kept it for a month for me. They had winterized it. Brought it to campground and hooked up water. No pressure inside trailer. I have a water purification system. However, I knew to check everything before installing cartridge. All valves are turned on, no leaks, hot water tank filled, checked aerators. Any suggestions as where I should check?

I've got a couple of questions for you.

Are you experiencing no water flow or low water pressure?
Are you using an adjustable regulator on the city water supply?
Is there lots of water pressure at the site's water supply?

Got Flow but low pressure.
Not using any regulator.
Pressure is great coming from source.

If it is a whole house water filter, take the filter cartridge out and try it. My guess is the filter is plugged or just too restrictive.

If the water pressure is still low after taking out the cartridge I had low water pressure and it was a damaged check valve at the city water inlet. I know it does not make sense but after changing the check valve I have great water pressure.
