About This Product

Cash Acme pressure regulating valves are designed to reduce incoming water pressure to a safe pressure to protect plumbing components. They also helps to prevent pressure surges from entering the household from the main line. High pressure can cause damage to appliances and plumbing. A pressure regulator should be installed after the main line to help protect plumbing. The Cash Acme EB-45 is a half-cartridge based pressure reducing and regulating valve with a lead free bronze body. The valve resembles traditional regulators with a spring chamber and an adjusting screw but offers the high performance of a cartridge based valve. Fitted with the SharkBite Connection system the EB-45 can be installed using a push-to-connect connection that can be installed on any combination of Copper, CPVC, or PEX Pipe.

    Install was easy, pressure too low for upper floor
    Installed this PRV as the older valve went bad and water pressure in the house went up to 120psi. The valve is situated in the basement. After install, the pressure in the house is quite low, especially the second floor bathrooms. Upon measuring, the pressure in basement shows at 42psi, meaning must be really low upstairs. Is it advisable to change the setting and if, do I need to turn the water meter valve off or not? Please advise. I have based the rating based on the hope that we can make it work as it has only been 4 weeks. I will update rating based on complete experience.

      Chattering valve
      I installed about a month ago and all was fine. Now it vibrates and the pressure jumps all over the place. I should have gone by the other reviews and not bought it.

      Response from Tech SupportApr 1, 2024
      Hi Steven, Thank you for contacting SharkBite. We are sorry to hear about the trouble you had with the Slip EB45 Pressure Regulating Valve. If you will call tech support at 877-700-4242 we will be happy to help. Kind regards,
        water hammer
        Worked fine until it started causing water hammer. Water hammer happens at the pressure regulating valve. Pressure from street is 110 psi and pressure was reduced in the house to 55 psi. which is great but there is still the water hammer. It only happens when I turn off the water at the kitchen sink by pushing the lever handle on the faucet hard and fast. When I turn off the water gently there is no water hammer. I had to return one valve because the pressure kept creeping back up after I had adjusted it down to 55 psi from 110 psi

            Easy to install, no leaks, i also installed SharkBite pressure...
            Easy to install, no leaks, i also installed SharkBite pressure gauges on either side of the value and it drops the pressure to exactly what it's factory rated for (45psi).

            Quick flawless install
            Installed with ease. Straightforward directions. Compact size. You need an inch on each end of the pipes to make a secure tight connection.

              Significant Hammering and Vibration
              **AVOID THIS PRODUCT** Con: It has been nothing but a problem since installed. Significant hammer and vibration any time water is used throughout the house. Even had a pro plumber come to the house to try and adjust to make it work. Finally had to have it removed and replaced. Pro: As with all Sharkbite products, the install with simple and easy.
