Water pressure surges — Calpe, Valencian Community
Sudden spikes in water pressure can damage pipes, fittings, and appliances like washing machines and dishwashers. You might notice pipes banging, faucets spitting, or the water heater's relief valve dripping. A licensed plumber can test your line pressure, install or adjust a pressure-reducing valve (PRV), and check for a failing expansion tank — the three most common causes of residential pressure surges.
