Commercial buildings require stable and controlled water pressure to protect plumbing systems, prevent damage, and maintain compliance with local regulations. A Pressure Reducing Valve (PRV) plays a critical role in managing high water pressure, preventing leaks, pipe bursts, and excessive strain on fixtures.
Our expert plumbers specialize in PRV installation, testing, and compliance inspections to help businesses stay within legal water pressure limits while ensuring long-term plumbing efficiency.

PRV Compliance Services for Commercial Properties in Murrieta & Temecula
What Is a Pressure Reducing Valve (PRV) & Why Is It Important?
A Pressure Reducing Valve (PRV) is a mechanical device installed on your main water line to regulate incoming water pressure and keep it at a safe, controlled level. Many municipal water supplies deliver high-pressure water, which can cause plumbing issues, excessive wear, and even regulatory violations.
PRVs protect commercial buildings from:
Pipe Damage & Leaks
Excess pressure can weaken pipes over time, leading to costly water damage.
Fixture & Appliance Malfunctions
High pressure can wear down faucets, toilets, water heaters, and irrigation systems.
Water Waste & Increased Utility Bills
Unregulated pressure results in unnecessary water usage, increasing costs.
Non-Compliance Fines & Penalties
Many jurisdictions require PRVs to prevent excessive water pressure in commercial properties.
By installing and maintaining a PRV system, businesses can prevent costly damage, reduce water waste, and stay compliant with plumbing codes.

Signs Your Commercial Property Needs a PRV Inspection
If your building’s water pressure is too high or fluctuates frequently, it could indicate a PRV issue or non-compliance with regulations.
Watch for these common warning signs:
Frequent Leaks & Pipe Damage
High pressure strains your pipes, causing premature wear, cracks, and leaks.
Banging or Noisy Pipes
A phenomenon known as “water hammer” occurs when high pressure forces water through your pipes too quickly.
Inconsistent Water Pressure
Sudden pressure drops or surges may indicate a failing PRV.
Increased Water Bills
High water pressure can lead to excessive water use, resulting in costly utility bills.
Worn-Out Fixtures & Appliances
If faucets, toilets, or water heaters seem to wear out quickly, unchecked water pressure may be to blame.
If you’ve noticed any of these issues, a PRV compliance inspection can help identify and resolve problems before they lead to costly repairs or fines.
PRV Compliance Regulations & Why They Matter
Most local plumbing codes require commercial buildings to maintain safe water pressure levels, typically below 80 psi (pounds per square inch). If your property exceeds this limit, you may be subject to:
- Regulatory fines & penalties
- Failed plumbing inspections
- Increased liability risks
- Premature plumbing system failures
Our PRV compliance experts conduct detailed inspections to ensure your system meets local and state plumbing codes, helping you avoid regulatory issues while protecting your infrastructure.

What is a PRV and why is it needed?
A PRV, or Pressure Reducing Valve, is designed to regulate the water pressure entering your building, preventing high-pressure water from damaging your pipes, fixtures, and equipment. It is particularly important in commercial buildings with high-pressure systems.
What happens if my PRV isn’t compliant?
If your PRV isn’t compliant with local regulations, it could lead to costly repairs, water damage, or fines. Non-compliance could also result in unsafe water pressure, putting your property at risk.
How can I ensure my PRV is compliant?
To ensure your PRV is compliant, it’s important to have it installed and tested by a professional plumber. Regular inspections are also essential to ensure ongoing compliance.
How often do I need PRV maintenance?
PRVs should be inspected regularly, typically once a year, to make sure they are functioning properly and to avoid issues such as pressure fluctuations.
Can I adjust my PRV on my own?
It is not recommended to adjust your PRV without professional help, as improper adjustments can lead to more significant issues, including water damage and higher energy bills.
