Commercial & Residential Pressure Regulator

The Watts LF26A regulator controls water pressure from 1 to 25 psi in commercial and residential plumbing systems. Its brass body handles inlet and outlet connections of 1/2 in. The unit operates at temperatures up to 140 Degrees F and withstands a maximum pressure of 300 psi.

Replaces Worn or Missing Regulating Valves

Install this valve when an existing pressure regulator fails to maintain stable downstream pressure or when a new supply line requires pressure reduction. The adjustment range suits low-pressure applications where standard factory settings are too high. The jump is worth it when pressure spikes damage fixtures or cause water hammer in the piping network.

Sustained Load Performance

Under continuous flow the brass body resists deformation at the rated 300 psi maximum pressure. The internal mechanism maintains the set pressure across the 1 to 25 psi range without drift during extended use. Heat resistance up to 140 Degrees F ensures reliable operation in hot-water recirculation loops. The compact 2 1/8 in length fits tight service spaces without stress on adjacent joints.
