Protect Your Home’s Water System with PRV Replace and Angle Stop Replace

Raptor Plumbing is your local, reliable plumbing contractor for PRV Replace and Angle Stop Replace services. From North Palm Beach to Ocean Ridge and nearby neighborhoods, our licensed team helps homeowners protect their pipes, fixtures, and appliances with safe, code-compliant solutions.

A Pressure Reducing Valve (PRV) keeps incoming municipal water pressure at a safe, consistent level. In our area, pressure spikes can cause loud banging pipes, running toilets, dripping faucets, and premature appliance failure. If your home’s pressure sits above 80 psi, a PRV replacement is often the best long-term fix.

• Signs you may need PRV Replace:
  • Fluctuating or excessively high water pressure
  • Noisy or vibrating pipes
  • Frequent leaks at fixtures or the water heater
  • Shortened life of faucets, toilets, and appliances
  • Pressure gauge reading consistently above 75–80 psi

What Raptor Plumbing does: We test your pressure at accessible hose bibs, evaluate your existing PRV, and if needed, perform a clean PRV Replace using durable, lead-free components. We set the new valve to the optimal range (typically around 60–70 psi) and ensure your piping is properly supported alongside the wall framing where required—never exposed on exterior surfaces—to meet best practices and maintain a tidy, professional finish.

Angle Stop Replace: Small Valves, Big Protection

Angle stops are the small shut-off valves under sinks and toilets. Over time, they corrode, seize, or weep at the stem, which can turn a minor drip into cabinet or floor damage. Proactive Angle Stop Replace helps you isolate fixtures quickly during a leak or upgrade.

• Consider replacing angle stops if:
  • Handles are hard to turn or frozen
  • There’s moisture, staining, or green/white buildup at the valve
  • Your home still has older multi-turn or compression-only stops
  • You’re renovating kitchens or bathrooms

Raptor Plumbing typically upgrades to quarter-turn ball-valve angle stops for smooth operation and reliability. We can also replace old supply lines, verify tight, drip-free connections, and keep all visible piping neat and aligned under the fixture, with any in-wall runs supported properly along the framing.
