What's more, the water pressure isn't always consistent and can rise and fall depending on how much water is being used across an area. A water pressure-reducing valve solves both these problems by keeping the water at a safe and constant pressure that's within your plumbing system's ideal range.

Regulator valves have other benefits besides the safety of maintaining a steady pressure. Turning down the valve can reduce water consumption by up to a third, helping to save money if you're on a metered connection. Lower water pressure can make heaters and boilers work more efficiently, saving on energy bills, while also reducing the amount of noise produced in your plumbing.

Pressureregulating valve

A pressure regulating valve is an essential part of any home plumbing installation, protecting your pipes and appliances from pressure surges in the water or gas supply. The water pressure-reducing valve range at Ace features components suitable for both home and commercial use, with a wide range of pressure ratings, materials and end-point designs to ensure a perfect fit.

To round out our valves and plumbing department, we also carry a wide range of other valve types to suit different areas of your installation, including:

Water in an urban area is typically supplied at a high pressure to ensure it can reach into tall buildings, remote areas, and other difficult destinations. In many cases, the pressure is higher than the typical maximum ratings of pipes, heaters, and other parts of a plumbing installation, which can risk leaks and other damage.

What’s more, fitting a pressure regulating valve at the lower level of a building leaves plenty of pressure in reserve to help the water reach the higher floors, which is important in multi-occupant buildings.

A type of underfloor heating system that uses heated water circulated through pipes embedded in the floor to provide warmth.

Pressure regulators and relief valves are closely related but not the same thing. A pressure regulating valve reduces the pressure in a mains supply to a safe level, while relief valves offer an easy way for excess pressure to escape in an emergency. Most often, surges of water pressure are directed safely into the drain system before they can damage your HVAC system or pipework.
