Ball Valve Services and Repair in Loughborough

Your plumbing system is one of the most important parts of the home. It ensures that water coming into the home is fresh and allows used water to exit the home in an ideal manner. Plumbing, however is not limited to just the pipes and taps running throughout the home. There are less obvious pieces to every plumbing system that should be addressed when doing repairs or performing any maintenance on the system.

At Synergy Plumbing Services, our qualified plumbers in Loughborough, Shepshed, Hathern, and the East Midlands understand that sometimes it is not appropriate to completely replace the home plumbing, but often it’s just about simple solutions like replacing items such as ball valves.

What is a Ball Valve?

Ball Valves are relatively simple items within the plumbing infrastructure of most homes. They work to allow water flow to be better controlled in modern homes without having to turn off the water supply to the entire home for repairs etc. The main component is a perforated and pivoted ball that controls water through the mechanism. This pivoting action allows water to flow through the ball, or it stops the water flow when pivoted in the opposite direction. It is a form of quarter turn valve.

Common Causes of Ball Valve Failure

The most common cause of ball valve failure comes down to pressure in the system. An overabundance of water pressure puts stress on the valve causing it to turn too far or be unable to rotate to the proper position to stop water flow. Synergy Plumbing Services can fix this issue quickly and get your water flowing again as it should. In the case of too much water pressure, we can adjust the flow to provide a less stressful environment for new ball valves.

How to Know When to Replace a Ball Valve

It is relatively easy to determine if a ball valve has gone awry or is in need of repair. When water is turned off to the tap and the water continues to flow, it could be a gasket, but it could also be a faulty ball valve.
