When water heats up, it expands. A properly functioning water heater can handle this expansion, often with the help of an expansion tank. Regular PRV valve checks ensure that the water pressure remains controlled, preventing undue stress on your heater and reducing the risk of damage.
The inlet hoses of appliances like washing machines are particularly vulnerable to high water pressure. Excessive pressure can cause these hoses to crack or separate, leading to leaks and potentially severe flooding. PRV valve maintenance helps protect your appliances by regulating the pressure.
High water pressure can cause toilets to run continuously, wasting thousands of gallons of water annually. It can also damage the flushing components within the toilet tank. Regular PRV valve maintenance keeps your toilets and fixtures functioning efficiently, saving water and avoiding costly repairs.
Pipes often signal high water pressure through loud banging noises, known as water hammer, when taps are shut off. This is the sound of fast-moving water coming to a sudden stop in your plumbing system. PRV valve maintenance helps prevent these sudden pressure surges, reducing the risk of leaks and pipe bursts.
