Water pressure to home

Tags: Plumbing
We just had an inspection for a house we wish to purchase. The report says that there is "60-Pounds of water pressure to the home," and we wonder if that is too low. The house is 3,500#, two stories, and has a pool.

That is exactly what it should be after the pressure regulator. That is plenty of pressure, flow will depend on the size and condition of the pipes.
