Plumbing fixtures and household appliances are designed to operate within particular water pressure specifications. Damage can be caused to pipes and appliances where water pressure specifications are exceeded.

If you're a pressure exempt customer and receive water pressure outside our standard pressure range, you'll receive a message on your bill reminding you about your non-standard water pressure.

A pressure reduction valve (PRV) reduces water pressure from the water supply main. Water entering the valve is constricted within the valve body and controlled by an adjustable spring which can provide a consistent water pressure up to 50 meters head (mH). This pressure range aligns with industry plumbing standards for domestic appliances.

If you are interested in increasing the water pressure inside your home, we recommend discussing your options with a certified plumber. You can search for a waterwise plumber via our Waterwise specialists tool.

The amount of pressure at your tap depends on how high the service reservoir or water tower is above your home. Properties at the top of a hill may have a different pressure to properties lower on the hill. High pressure can be a result of being lower on a hill and/or situated below a reservoir or water tower.

Pressure is the force which pushes water through pipes and determines the flow of water from the tap. It can vary due varies due to the topography of the land, water flow and age of the scheme.
