Call now (352) 720-2311High water pressure is one of the most common problems we see in Clermont, Minneola and Groveland. City pressure should sit at 55 to 60 psi. Anything above 75 psi is damaging to your fixtures and your pipes, and we regularly test homes in these areas reading 100 psi or more.
Most homes have a pressure reducing valve (PRV) installed, but they wear out. When one fails, the pressure it was holding back goes straight through the house.
The fix starts with a pressure test at the hose bib. If the reading comes back high, we install or replace the PRV to bring the home back down to a safe 55 to 60 psi, then confirm the pressure with the new valve in place.

Questions we get asked
What is a safe water pressure for a home?
City pressure should sit at 55 to 60 psi. Anything above 75 psi is damaging to your fixtures and your pipes, and we regularly test homes in Clermont, Minneola and Groveland reading 100 psi or more.
What does a PRV do?
A pressure reducing valve holds incoming city pressure down to a safe level for the house. Most homes have one installed, but they wear out, and when one fails the pressure it was holding back goes straight through the house.
How do I know if my pressure is too high?
The reliable way is a pressure test at the hose bib, which takes minutes. Failing fixtures, a dripping relief valve on the water heater and banging pipes are all common signs it is worth testing.
