Pressure Reducing Valves (PRVs), are one of the easiest and most cost effective tools you can use to prolong the life of your plumbing system and save money. This is especially important for older homes where the pipes may be past their life expectancy, for homes with the brittle yellowish plastic water lines called CPVC, or where copper lines are exposed to the cold.

Being a homeowner means making lots of difficult choices, one of which is what to do when you are faced with an unforeseen repair and need to hire a professional to come to your home. The most important customer concern is the question of COST, followed closely by a company’s reputation, warranties, and licensing and insurance.

When we’re speaking with a customer about why their pipes failed, about 85% of the time the customer wasn’t aware of the material or condition of their pipes. And really, why would they be? The majority of our plumbing is hidden behind walls, in the ceiling, a concrete slab, and outside in the ground.

This is for all your DIYers out there! Listen, we feel for you. We’ve all been where you are, determined to figure out something you never tried before. We understand how accomplishing a goal while saving money and learning something new is a rush! But… we have to know our limits, and they usually center around safety.
