Key Features & Benefits:…..(23)

Precise Pressure Regulation: The Apex Pressure Control Valve consistently reduces high incoming water pressure to a predetermined, safe operating pressure (commonly 400kPa or 600kPa, depending on the model), ensuring a stable supply to your hot water system.

Integrated Expansion Valve (Common Feature): Many Apex models feature a combined pressure limiting and expansion valve. This crucial addition manages thermal expansion within the hot water cylinder as water heats up, safely releasing excess pressure to prevent over-pressurisation and damage.

Protects Appliances & Pipework: By maintaining a controlled pressure, the valve shields your geyser, taps, showerheads, washing machines, and dishwashers from the damaging effects of high or fluctuating water pressure, extending their operational life.

Enhanced Safety: Prevents potentially dangerous situations caused by excessive pressure buildup in hot water systems, offering peace of mind for homeowners.

Durable, Corrosion-Resistant Construction: Manufactured from high-quality, corrosion-resistant materials (often DR brass), ensuring robust performance and long-term reliability in diverse water conditions.

High Flow Rates: Designed to provide excellent flow rates, ensuring adequate water supply to all your hot water outlets without significant pressure drop.

Easy Installation: Features standard connection types (e.g., 22mm copper-to-copper – CxC) for straightforward integration into new or existing plumbing systems.

SABS Approved (South Africa Specific): Many Apex Pressure Control Valves available in South Africa are SABS certified, assuring compliance with national quality and safety standards.

Reduces Water Hammer: By stabilising pressure, the valve can help to mitigate the effects of water hammer, reducing noise and stress on your plumbing.

Backed by Apex Quality: As part of the LIXIL Africa family, Apex Valves are renowned for their engineering excellence, rigorous testing, and comprehensive product support.
