💧 Is your home protected from high water pressure?
One of the most overlooked plumbing components is the mains pressure reduction valve (PRV).
Without one, or if it’s faulty, excessive water pressure can slowly damage your plumbing system, putting unnecessary strain on taps, toilets, flexi hoses, hot water systems and household appliances. Over time, this can lead to leaks, burst pipes and costly repairs.
A correctly installed and functioning pressure reduction valve helps:
✔️ Protect your plumbing system
✔️ Extend the life of your hot water system and appliances
✔️ Reduce the risk of burst pipes and water damage
✔️ Maintain safe, consistent water pressure throughout your home
If you’ve noticed banging pipes, leaking taps, frequent flexi hose failures, or unusually high water pressure, it may be time to have your pressure checked.
At High Tide Plumbing & Gas, we can inspect your water pressure, test your pressure reduction valve, and replace it if needed to help keep your home protected.
