Common Signs Your PRV May Be Failing

A failing pressure reducing valve can cause noticeable changes in your home’s water system. In many cases, these issues start small and become more frequent over time.

  • Fluctuating water pressure: Sudden changes from low to high pressure
  • Banging or knocking pipes: Often caused by pressure surges
  • Leaks around fixtures: Excess pressure can stress connections
  • Appliance issues: Water heaters and washers may wear out faster

If you’re noticing any of these signs, Radiant can evaluate your system and determine whether your PRV needs adjustment, repair, or replacement.
