Pressure Reducing Valve Replacement in Kansas City, MO

A new service line can bring more pressure into the house than the old, scaled one did. That is good up to a point. Above 80 psi, faucets bang, toilet fill valves wear quickly, and new pipe joints take more stress than they should. The plumbing codes generally call for a pressure reducing valve when street pressure is higher than 80 psi.

SPB Hydro Plumbing connects Kansas City, MO homeowners with plumbers who install and replace pressure reducing valves. The valve goes on the main line just after the shutoff, and it is usually set somewhere around 50 to 60 psi.

PRVs wear out. Signs include pressure that creeps up overnight, a relief valve on the water heater that drips, and a humming or chattering sound at the main. A gauge on a hose bib tells the story in a minute.

It makes sense to replace the PRV during a water line replacement or repipe. Call SPB Hydro Plumbing at (866) 335-0301.

Water line replacement FAQs

Questions about water line replacement and whole house repiping

Questions we hear most often about Pressure Reducing Valve Replacement in Kansas City, MO.

Talk to a person
What is the difference between water line replacement and whole house repiping?
Water line replacement covers the buried service pipe from the meter or curb stop to the house. Whole house repiping replaces the supply lines inside the walls. Older homes often need both because the pipes are the same age.
Is PEX or copper better for repiping?
PEX costs less, needs fewer wall openings and does not corrode. Copper handles heat well and lasts in friendly water but can pit in aggressive water. Many homes with past pinhole leaks choose PEX.
How can I tell if I have polybutylene pipe?
Polybutylene is flexible gray or blue plastic, often stamped PB2110, found in many homes built from about 1978 to 1995. Check near the water heater, under sinks and where the main enters the house.
Will my walls be torn up during a repipe in Kansas City, MO?
No. Plumbers cut small access holes where pipes turn or connect, then patch, tape, mud and texture them. Closets and cabinet backs are used where possible.
Can slab leaks be fixed without breaking the floor?
Often the lines under the slab are abandoned and new PEX is rerouted through the attic or walls. That leaves the concrete and flooring alone.
