Water Pressure Check in Boise, Idaho

Boise Valley Plumbing water pressure
At Boise Valley Plumbing in Boise, Idaho we know high water pressure is major cause of leaks, pipe damage, and wasted water.  If you have an older home it is important to have a licensed plumber check your water pressure to make sure it is not coming in to high from the city access.  This can cause damage to your pipes over time.  If an adjustment is necessary, make sure the plumber provides a reasonable, written estimate if any repairs are needed.  If the pressure is low, showers are not satisfying and toilets don't flush well.  They can increase the pressure by adjusting your current system.

It is important to learn how to detect and prevent it.    Feeling warm water pelleting your body in a shower is one of the benefits of water pressure that is adequately high.  However, water pressure that is too high can cause expensive and annoying damage.

The water that come into a home from the main water systems is often flowing at a pressure that is higher than necessary for household appliances.  In time, the pressure can cause damage to pipes, walls and possessions.

​The supplier can also change the external pressure without warning the homeowner. Have a routine water pressure check can give peace of mind that there is not a hidden problem from pressure.  Your plumber can also help you with low water pressure.

Most manufacturers recommend that water pressure be no more than 80psi (pounds per square inch). Water pressure coming into the house may be much greater than this maximum either due to the height of the supplying water storage tank or commercial uses in the area that may require higher psi.  Anything higher 80 psi can cause fixtures such as water heaters, faucets, shut-off valves and toilet parts to fail prematurely.

People usually don't realize they have high water pressure, but unwanted stress is being applied to the entire home’s plumbing system. It may go undetected until the problems are compounded and pipes break, water heaters break or toilets fail. 

Most homes built after 2002 have a PVR pressure regulatory valve.  The lifespan of the valves is from 7 to 12 years.  Older homes have often had a valve installed.  However, the pressure should be checked to make sure they are doing their job.  The valve is usually located near the shut off valve.

Having your water pressure checked by a Boise Valley Plumbing professional at least once a year can ensure your plumbing system is functioning properly.
