Pressure reducing valves (PRVs) are used to lower the municipal water supply pressure feeding commercial buildings and homes. Pressure reducing valves are required by code when the street pressure is higher than 80 psi. In addition to meeting code, there are numerous benefits to installing a PRV in plumbing or irrigation system.
