The PRV balances pressure properly between the hot and the cold water in a domestic water system.
The home's water pressure is comparable to the body's blood pressure. Everything must fall inside a particular range in order for it to work well and prevent occasionally dire repercussions.
Plumbing code specifies that the water pressure entering the house should range between 40 and 80 pounds per square inch (PSI). The range of performance for all of the plumbing components, supply lines, and water-using appliances is specified in their design. Higher water pressure often doesn't result in immediate problems, but it wears down the plumbing more quickly and makes leaks and floods more likely over time. Equipment is safeguarded against process overpressure by pressure relief valves. For these valves to function correctly when you need them, routine testing and maintenance are required.
Within the scope of our work, we repair safety valves and relief valves of various brands and sizes. Your pressure relief valves will be inspected, repaired, and tested to international standards and manufacturer specifications by our skilled and experienced valve specialists using specialized repair tools, blasting equipment, lathes, polishing equipment, lapping equipment, and approved test stands.
