"Your pressure regulators are factory set at 45psi. What is the full range?"
The pressure regulators that we sell can be adjusted from 20psi up to 70psi.
They can handle up to 300psi incoming pressure. We normally recommend keeping
the adjustment between 40psi and 55psi for most households. If you need your
pressure lower than 20psi then we would recommend a different type of regulator.
"What is water hammer?"
Water hammer occurs a lot! It is frequently recognized by a "thump" or "bang",
usually throughout the water line (if you have copper pipes, you'll tend
to hear the noise throughout the house). Water hammer can be caused by a number of things.
Many times a loose washer that is jumping around in the faucet or valve causes it.
This can be fixed by identifying which valve is the culprit and
fixing the washer. Other times it is simply caused by water traveling at a rapid rate
and suddenly being shut off. The best solution for this is to increase the size
of the water supply thereby slowing down the water (a larger pipe being able
to deliver the same amount of water in gallons per minute at a slower speed).
If this is not possible, then many times a water hammer arrestor helps.
"Can I mount a water pressure regulator vertically?"
Yes, you can mount a water pressure regulator verticaly, however, it will wear-out more quickly.
