Unfortunately Council only take responsibility for issues with your water supply before your water meter and not after. The Council only have to supply a minimum water pressure to your property and there is no maximum pressure restriction on their supply and therefore protecting your property is your responsibility.

Water distribution systems in most Councils’ are spread out over greatdistances and over various elevations, which force the water supplier to ensure they provide enough pressure to adequately serve all its consumers, but this means that some will likely be connected to a supply that is above optimal operating pressure. Typically people are comfortable with water pressures in the 300 to 600KPA range; hence, most areas have incorporated into their local plumbing code a provision requiring a pressure reducing valve to limit the supply pressure to 500KPA. In Gold Coast City Councils case all new homes must have a 500KPA pressure reducing valve installed at their water meter as part of the local plumbing code.

Water which is being forced through the pipes at high pressure can cause the pipes it travels through to experience more wear and tear which leads to more frequent burst pipes, increased water hammer, premature wear on tap and toilet parts and water using electrical appliances such as icemaker fridges, dishwashers, washing machines and hot water units. It can also increase water usage if restricted outlets have not been fitted in the property.

Water which is being forced through the pipes at high pressure before thevalve will be slowed down after the valve. This can help to ensure that thepipes which the water travels through experience less wear and tear, and also that any fittings or joints are not over-pressured, which can lead them to leak or come loose.

The WiFi Snow Melting Control 671 operates hydronic and electric heating equipment designed to melt snow and/or ice from roads and walkways surfaces. The control works with tekmar Snow/Ice Sensor 090 or Snow Sensor 095 to automatically detect snow or ice and operates a single boiler, steam valve or electric cable to supply heat to the slab. The Watts® Home mobile application allows for remote operation and monitoring of the snow melting system from anywhere in the world.
