Watts Brass Tubular 1/2 LF25AUB-Z3 Pressure Reducing Valve

Product Description

The WATTS BRASS TUBULAR 1/2 LF25AUB-Z3 is a lead-free water pressure reducing valve designed to regulate incoming supply pressure to a safe, adjustable downstream range of 25 to 75 psi. The valve connects via National Pipe Thread Female Union inlet and National Pipe Thread Female outlet, making it compatible with standard threaded plumbing assemblies. A polymer seat provides reliable shutoff performance across the adjustment range. This valve is also referenced by ordering code 0960002. It is installed by licensed plumbers in residential and light commercial potable water systems where incoming line pressure must be controlled to protect downstream fixtures, appliances, and piping.

This pressure reducing valve is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing applications where municipal or well supply pressure exceeds safe fixture ratings. Typical installations include at the service entrance of a home or building, downstream of the water meter, or at the point of connection to fixture branches requiring pressure control. The lead-free construction meets requirements for use on potable water systems. The adjustable 25 to 75 psi range allows the installer to dial in the target downstream pressure to match system design requirements.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with the International Plumbing Code and applicable local codes. Shut off the main water supply and relieve system pressure before removing any existing valve or making new connections. Use appropriate thread sealant or tape rated for potable water service on all threaded joints. After installation, adjust the valve to the desired downstream pressure setting and verify with a calibrated pressure gauge.
