ACME Cash 1/2 in. Bronze Pressure Regulating Valve 23808-0045

Pressure regulating valves are designed to reduce incoming water pressure to a safe pressure to protect plumbing components. They also helps to prevent pressure surges from entering the household from the main line. High pressure can cause damage to appliances and plumbing. A pressure regulator should be installed after the main line to help protect plumbing. The Cash Acme EB-45 is a half-cartridge based pressure reducing and regulating valve with a lead free bronze body. The valve resembles traditional regulators with a spring chamber and an adjusting screw but offers the high performance of a cartridge based valve. Fitted with the SharkBite Connection system the EB-45 can be installed using a push-fit connection that can be installed on any combination of Copper, CPVC or PEX Pipe.
