| In response to Re: high water pressure, where does the shutoff go? | |
![]() : I live in a mobile home park where water pressure sometimes exceeds 100 psi. I've been told I need to install a pressure reducing valve to protect the plumbing in the home. The home installation guide that came with my home said water pressure should not exceed 80 psi. : The house is connected from the water meter to a main cut-off under the house by what looks like a 1" black plastic flexible pipe. : My question is, if I do this myself, should the pressure reducing valve be after the main cut-off or before it and if it should be before it, can I just cut the plastic pipe and clamp it in the gap I made for the cut? : Thanks, Tom, |
