Cities require high water pressure for fire hydrants and for water to work against gravity and reach the top levels in multi-story buildings.

As high water pressure enters, the spring and diaphragm make it more difficult for water to pass. Conversely, as lower water pressure enters the valve, water easily passes since the diaphragm and spring are under less pressure. Thus, the water pressure regulator can regulate water pressure and be adjusted through the external screw that controls spring tension.

This valve is frequently installed right after the main water shut-off and is needed on homes with high or variable water pressure. Without one, high water pressure can wreak havoc by bursting pipes, damaging plumbing fixtures, or even damaging appliances over time.
