What is a PRV water valve?

A PRV is a Pressure Reducing Valve that is commonly placed on water distribution systems and within individual homes, multi-family homes and businesses. This spring holds a pre-set tension on the valve seat installed with a pressure equalizing mechanism for precise water pressure control.

How do I know if my PRV is bad?

Now, here are five symptoms that could indicate that your pressure reducing valve is going bad.

1. Low or Fluctuating Water Pressure.
2. No Water Pressure.
3. Hammering or Vibrating Noises.
4. A Leak in your Flower Bed.
5. High Water Pressure.

How does a PRV work water?

A water pressure regulator (sometimes called a pressure-reducing valve, or PRV) is a specialized plumbing valve that reduces the water pressure coming into the home through the main water line. This valve brings down the pressure to a safe level before the water reaches any plumbing fixtures inside the home.

Do I need a PRV valve?

Yes. In areas with high water pressure such as Draper – because our water comes down from the mountains – a PRV helps protect pipes, fixtures, and water-using appliances from damage or breaks. PRVs can save you money by reducing the amount of wasted water in your home.

Why do I need a PRV valve?

A pressure reducing valve protects your pipe and your plumbing fitting from bursting due to high water pressure. High water pressure can put stress on your pipes, causing them to break or damage the plumbing fitting leading to leaks.

How often should PRV be replaced?

every 4-5 years
Make sure you replace your PRV every 4-5 years to avoid problems due to age.

What happens if PRV fails?

If your system isn’t reaching pressure, this could be a sign of pressure relief valve failure. In some cases, this could be fixable. This often causes chattering, where the valve isn’t fully open, but is opening and closing rapidly, preventing it from properly doing its job.

Does PRV reduce flow?

PRVs are effectively multi-functional – by lowering outlet pressure and flow rate, they also help reduce excessive water consumption and plumbing noise.
