What is a water pressure reducing valve, and how does it work?

A water pressure reducing valve (PRV) is a device installed in your plumbing system to regulate and lower the water pressure coming into your home. It ensures that the pressure remains at a safe and manageable level, protecting your pipes and appliances from damage.
