Hi all,

I think the pressure reducing valve cartridge on my pressure reducing valve is leaking. The pipe size is 22mm.

Where can I find a replacement for it?

I am clue less about what pressure and type it is.

here is a picture

It should say on the blue cap what pressure rate it is, all decent plumbers merchants stock them!

There's nothing written on the cap, maybe it is under the dirt / limescale. I will remove it and take to the shop on Saturday.

Also I just noticed there's a screw on the end of the cap, it also looks like you can rotate the blue cap in any directions. What is this adjusting? The water pressure? How do I know that I have the correct adjustment.

Thanks
Seb
 
yea that will work just set it to about 3-3.5 bar you will be fine
 
The valve is set just after the tap from the main. From the valve the pipe goes into my flat. It is cold water.

The cylinder is set way later in system
