Water pressure regulator

Rainbow Water has high pressure within water mains in certain areas due to the varying terrain of the service area. High water pressures in home plumbing systems may cause leaking water heaters, dripping faucets, dishwasher and washing machine noise and breakdown, or leaking water pipes. Water flowing ata rate more than necessary to satisfy normal fixtures or appliance demands can become damaging, wasteful, and reduce equipment life expectancy in homes. Maintaining a set pressure in the house, usually 50 pounds per square inch (psi), may ensure that home piping and appliances operate under a safe and satisfactory pressure.

In high pressure areas, Rainbow Water installs a pressure regulator on the District-owned side of the water service to protect the District’s water meter. However, given the unique properties and varying needs of each customer’s on-site water system, the customer is responsible for installing and maintaining a PRV on the customer’s side of the meter, preferably as close as possible to the downstream side of the District meter to ensure all the customer’s plumbing is protected. PRV's can be purchased at a home improvement or plumbing supply store and can be installed as a do-it-yourself project or by a qualified plumbing contractor.

A residential water softener is probably worth the purchase if your home’s water hardness is more than 5 grains per gallon (120 mg/L). Home water softeners are worth the money for helping to prevent build-up of minerals on the inside of any pipes or water heaters; lengthening the life of some appliances in your home, and reducing the buildup of mineral spots and soap film on glassware, sinks, bathtubs, etc. Other factors like the presence of iron or other minerals could make increase your return on investment and potentially make your water safer in the process.

The most accurate method is to buy a pressure gauge from your local hardware store and hook it up to a hose faucet/bib. Check the pressure when all other faucets and water-using appliances are turned off to get a baseline reading. In general, you want the household plumbing to provide between 30 and 80 psi.

With the Patriot series residential water softener system, you can choose between automatic or manual single/double regeneration to ensure the resin beds are thoroughly revitalized, guaranteeing the finest soft water quality. For ease of use, two front-mounted touch keypads and clear displays alternate between current time and gallons remaining.

The Reliant series home water softening system is designed for ease and precision. Its electronic controls are straightforward and fully programmable, allowing users to adjust seamlessly for varying water hardness levels.

Home water softeners operate using an ion exchange process. As hard water, containing minerals like calcium and magnesium, flows through the softener’s resin-filled tank, these minerals are exchanged for sodium ions on the resin beads. This conversion transforms hard water into soft water. Over time, the resin beads become saturated with hard minerals and need regeneration. During this process, a salt solution from the system’s brine tank flushes and recharges the resin beads, restoring their sodium ion levels and prepping the softener for further use. This cycle ensures a consistent supply of soft water for household use.

Introducing our state-of-the-art home water softeners! At Diamond H2O®, we seek to help homeowners reduce high concentrations of minerals like calcium and magnesium in their water. This buildup isn’t just an inconvenience – it can lead to unsightly scale buildup in your pipes and appliances, lowered effectiveness of your water heaters, and even contribute to your soaps not lathering as they should, potentially leaving your skin and hair feeling dry.

Water pressure regulators or pressure-reducing valves (PRV) are compact valves used to reduce high incoming water pressure from the public water main to provide a lower, more consistent water pressure for distribution to your household plumbing and fixtures.

Water pressure regulatorhow to adjust

PRVs have been described as "life-of-mortgage" products because historically, a malfunctioning water pressure reducing valve is not replaced but cleaned or repaired via an inexpensive service kit. Design-wise, it is similar to the kitchen faucet because dirt or foreign matter on the seating area can cause problems. It is no more challenging to repair a water pressure-reducing valve than fixing the kitchen faucet.

Diamond H2O®’s cutting-edge Patriot series home water softening system provides unmatched customization with its fully programmable regeneration cycles, allowing users to optimize for distinct water conditions. With choices between automatic or manual regeneration modes, it guarantees consistently rejuvenated resin beds and superior soft water quality.

A conveniently positioned touch keypad ensures effortless use, while a clear, alternating display. Moreover, the system is smartly integrated with a 28-day water usage memory, which auto-adjusts reserve capacity, ensuring efficiency even with fluctuating water usage patterns.

With the right tools and instructions, you can adjust the water pressure regulator by yourself instead of calling in a plumber. For more information contact a plumber or search for video tutorials on YouTube.

Choose Diamond H2O® for residential water softeners to soften your home’s hard water! All our water softeners go through third party validation to ensure their performance meets or exceeds national standards. TG Analytical Labs certifies each product using national standards (i.e. NSF/ANSI 44) to verify that our home water softeners performance exceeds these standards. All validated products are listed on the DSPS website.

The life expectancy of a water pressure regulator is most commonly in the range of 10 to 15 years. However, you may see a regulator malfunction at three years and one still properly functioning at 20 years old if regularly maintained.

A pressure regulator is a spring-loaded valve that regulates pressure on the downstream (house) side of the valve. Altering the degree of spring compression changes the downstream pressure.

Our home water softener systems operate on the proven ion exchange process, housing resin beads pre-charged with sodium ions. When hard water courses through our unit, the calcium and magnesium ions are effectively swapped for sodium ions, and making the water soft. Over time, as the beads become saturated with hard water minerals, our system intuitively regenerates by utilizing a salt solution from its brine tank, thus ensuring continuous soft water supply for your home. We’re not just offering a product, but a lifetime of service, ensuring regular maintenance and salt replenishment so your home enjoys the best of soft water every day!

Residential water softeners are exchange systems, in that they exchange ions in the water. Calcium (Ca2+) and Magnesium (Mg2+) are the ions that cause hardness in water. Sodium (Na+) is the ion that a water softener uses to replace the calcium and magnesium ions with, resulting in soft water. Resin inside the water softener is used as an exchange medium. The resin loosely holds the Sodium (Na+) ions which are exchanged with Calcium (Ca2+) and Magnesium (Mg2+) ions. Once the resin becomes saturated with the calcium and magnesium ions, it must be regenerated and flushed out. After regeneration, the resin can remove Calcium and Magnesium again.

The DP series home water softeners represent the pinnacle of efficient water conditioning. Within this range, the 9000 and 9100 models come equipped with the advanced 9000/9100 Controller, perfectly suited for 3/4″ and 1″ valves, ensuring streamlined flow and optimized softening performance.

The DROP Cabinet home water softener is the perfect water softening solution for small homes, condos, etc., whenever the only place available to install a softener is in the laundry room or another small space.
