Replacing a Water Pressure Regulator and 2 Shut Off Valves 💦

The water pressure was extremely high and the old PRV was making a high pitched whining noise for the client. Here's the full video of a water pressure regulator swap. We decided to replace the 2 old gate valves as well and install 2 new ball valves. Using press copper fittings and valves to complete this install #plumbing #plumber #diy #copper #homerepair. #plumbingrepair #tools

New to plumbing, what’s the benefit of the rigid pro press over just solder, it seems easier but the only downside I can think of is you can unsolder , but can u unpress the fitting also ?

[@ВадимЗакиров-ь8и]

I really like the longer versions of your videos)

[@theplumberlorian]

Awesome! Thank you, yeah I’ve gotten so many requests. I’m going to upload the slower versions as well around the same time as the shorts. That why people can watch whatever they like!

Evert trade has top dawg tools. You have the ones for plumbing

[@theplumberlorian]

💯 Thanks brotha 👍

[@jessebrown1497]

Why is the pipe hanging out so far from the wall? Why not go up and build it vertical so it's out of the way

[@theplumberlorian]

This is all located under a water heater .. I had to remove the water heater to perform this work and then reinstall it

[@mmplumber]

Love it mate great job!

[@theplumberlorian]

Thanks brotha! Cheers!

[@amandonstephanieconstructi870]

Really nice work 🔥 🔥 but did you offer to run it up the wall and out the way a little bit more just wondering because some customers will and others will say the hell with it

[@theplumberlorian]

Thanks! actually all this work was done under their water heater.. I had to remove the water heater to get to it and then reinstall the heater, so going up wasn’t an option

[@The_Bearded_Plumber602]

Nice work 🔥🔥

[@theplumberlorian]

Thanks man! Appreciate that 🙏 hope you’re enjoying your Sunday

[@aaronbaraiya3692]

Where were the 2 lines going?

[@theplumberlorian]

The one 3/4 inch copper line is the main water coming into the home .. the other line is a 1/2 inch copper line to an outdoor hosebibb.

[@Dirtyharry70585]

How’s the tool working out for any leaks?

[@theplumberlorian]

I’ve been using it a little over 2 years now .. so far no leaks 👍

[@rcmechanialgroup2856]

Looks good. I like the Zurn PRVs. Where do you get the press unions? I usually use the threaded unions.

[@theplumberlorian]

Thanks man, they actually come with the PRV .. I’ll get the model number when I get back to the office

[@rcmechanialgroup2856]

Great. Thanks. @@theplumberlorian

[@rcmechanialgroup2856]

Hey, just wanted to see if you had a chance to get the model #?@@theplumberlorian

[@rcmechanialgroup2856]

You get a chance to get the model #?@@theplumberlorian

[@ZeollaPlumbing]

Clean as always

[@theplumberlorian]

Appreciate it

[@kevinmatulonis]

Even plumbing has gone down hill.....in that cluster of pipe and fitting show many orings will eventually leak

[@quantumquotes_ai]

You are great
Dear sir,
I appreciate your work i am an video editor so i can edit your videos

[@Yutaniflow]

What is the little black tool called that you crimp with in tight spaces?

[@theplumberlorian]

I’m using the RIDGID RP 241 here with the C1 jaws

[@marvellstarks2434]

What the pipe on top, a bypass. Im not a plumber, just a handyman

[@marvellstarks2434]

Oh nevermind I see now. The water supply in is coming from the bottom left

[@kevinmatulonis]

Why didn't he go up the wall? That's a waste of space

[@theplumberlorian]

It’s all located under the water heater (not in the video) that’s why

[@imNiao]

Конечно, все это не много странно. Но прикольно и смотрится интересно 😊

[@theplumberlorian]

Thank you 🙏 much appreciated

[@blipblop92]

Replacing the propress valves gonna be a headache

[@theplumberlorian]

Nahh in 40-50 years just cut that all out and repipe it no big deal

[@drewmasondom]

Why use the c1 jaws here? Are they just easier to use? Looking into getting a set, done a few remodels where I wished I had them

[@theplumberlorian]

Yep.. they are just easier to maneuver IMO .. and don’t stick to the fittings .. definitely a must have in my book if you do a lot of service and repair

[@kevinmatulonis]

Another crappy pro press job

[@theplumberlorian]

It’s 2024 ..

[@kevinmatulonis]

@@theplumberlorian well at least you the got year right
