Home Water Pressure Regulator Installation & Repair
Protect Your Plumbing with a Home Water Pressure Regulator
If your water pressure feels too strong, or your pipes, fixtures, or appliances are wearing out faster than they should, you may need a home water pressure regulator. Also known as a PRV (pressure reducing valve), this essential plumbing component protects your entire system from damage caused by excessive water pressure.
At Plumb Tite, we provide professional PRV installation, PRV repair, and water pressure regulator replacement for homeowners throughout Mason, Cincinnati, and Northern Kentucky. Our licensed plumbers ensure your water pressure is set to safe, efficient levels—without unnecessary upsells or scare tactics.
What Is a Home Water Pressure Regulator?
A home water pressure regulator is a valve installed on your main water line that controls how much pressure enters your home. Municipal water pressure is often much higher than what residential plumbing systems are designed to handle. Without a functioning regulator, that excess pressure can lead to:
- Leaking pipes and fittings
- Premature appliance failure
- Dripping faucets and running toilets
- Increased risk of burst pipes
- Higher water bills
A properly installed and maintained regulator keeps your pressure within a safe range – typically 50–60 PSI – protecting your home and saving you money long‑term.
