DrainPro Plumbing Services

Welcome to DrainPro Plumbing Services, High water pressure is a common issue in many homes and often goes unnoticed until damage occurs.

Excessive pressure places constant strain on plumbing systems, fixtures, appliances and flexible connection hoses.

Why High Water Pressure Matters

Causes taps, toilets, mixers and valves to fail prematurely

Increases the risk of leaks and burst pipes

Shortens the life of hot water systems and appliances

Can void manufacturer warranties if pressure exceeds recommended limits

May affect insurance claims where damage is linked to excessive pressure

Hidden Risk areas in the home

Flexible braided hoses are commonly installed under sinks, basins, toilets, dishwashers and hot water systems. These hoses operate under constant pressure and are particularly vulnerable when water pressure is excessive.

When a flexible hose fails, it can release a large volume of water very quickly, often causing significant internal damage. Many major household water damage claims are linked to sudden hose failures.

Sydney water & responsibilitiy

Sydney Water is responsible for supplying water to the property boundary and maintaining the public water network. They do not manage, regulate, or limit water pressure within private properties.

Managing high water pressure within the property is the homeowner’s responsibility. Sydney Water does not install or maintain pressure reduction valves on private property.

Australian Plumbing Standards

Australian plumbing standards recommend that water pressure within a property does not exceed 500kPa. Where pressure exceeds this level, installing a pressure reduction valve (PRV) is recommended to protect plumbing systems and fixtures.
