| Home water regulator |
A water pressure regulator valve is usually positioned on a home’s main water supply to regulate water pressure from the water company/City to the home. When inspecting homes, I attach a pressure gauge to a spigot or faucet to measure a home’s water pressure. Ideally you want the pressure to be under 80psi. Why? Too much pressure may cause pipes to leak and damage water using appliances. Too little water pressure may cause you frustration trying to have a shower!
Making sure the water pressure regulator is working and set correctly is usually an easy fix. A pressure gauge costs about $5-$10, and an adjustable wrench (maybe a flathead screwdriver) is all you need to adjust the regulator. Click here to view a “how-to” video.
