Filter housings, push-fit fittings and fridge inlet valves are built for a certain working pressure, and repeated spikes can lead to cracked housings, weeping joints or a burst line under the sink. A pressure limiting valve sits in the supply line and holds the downstream pressure to no more than 550kPa. If you have had unexplained leaks at your filter or fridge connection, high pressure is worth ruling out.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePart details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLimits downstream pressure to 550kPa\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlastic valve body\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\/4 inch quick connect fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUniversal fit for 1\/4 inch tube on filter and fridge lines\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGeneric aftermarket part\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"part-specs\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePressure limit\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e550kPa\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eBody\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePlastic\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eConnections\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1\/4 inch quick connect\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eInstalling the valve\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTurn off the water supply and open a tap downstream to release pressure.
