Field notes from maintenance practice

High pressure is a slow, expensive leak-maker: sustained pressure above ~5.5 bar stresses every joint, valve and appliance hose in the building and is a leading cause of burst flexi-hoses and failed water heaters. If your readings sit high, a pressure-reducing valve pays for itself; if they sag at peak times, the problem is supply or a partially closed valve. Watch the daily min/max, not just the average. Both ends of the range cause grief: low pressure means feeble showers and starved appliances, while high pressure hammers fixtures, shortens water-heater and appliance life, and wastes water โ€” and pressure often swings with municipal demand through the day.

Consistency makes the numbers meaningful: measure at the same point, with the same instrument, at sensible intervals (continuous where the risk is high, spot-checks where it is low). The in-range percentage is the metric to watch โ€” a band that quietly drifts from 100% toward 95% is telling you something is changing before any single reading alarms.

About Water Supply Pressure Dashboard

This dashboard turns scattered water pressure checks for a building water supply into a monitored series: log a reading whenever you measure and it tracks the latest value, the average, the min/max range, the percentage of readings inside the acceptable band and the number of excursions โ€” the everyday telemetry picture, computed in your browser with no logger subscription. The default acceptable band is 2โ€“5 bar typical building supply (above ~5.5 bar many codes require a pressure-reducing valve).

How to use Water Supply Pressure Dashboard

  1. 1Log a reading whenever you measure โ€” each is timestamped and stored in your browser.
  2. 2The dashboard shows latest, average, min/max, in-range % and an excursion count against the acceptable band.
  3. 3Watch the sparkline and the in-range percentage โ€” a falling in-range % is your early warning before a hard excursion.

Frequently asked questions

What is the acceptable water pressure range for a building water supply?+

The default band is 2โ€“5 bar typical building supply (above ~5.5 bar many codes require a pressure-reducing valve). Treat it as a sensible starting point โ€” your own specification, regulator, equipment manual or product datasheet sets the authoritative limits, and you can read your true band straight off the worst case those documents allow. Edit the readings against whatever band applies to you.

Is high water pressure actually a problem?+

Yes โ€” sustained high pressure (above roughly 5โ€“5.5 bar) is hard on plumbing: it stresses pipe joints and fixture seals, accelerates water-heater wear, makes taps and toilets more prone to leaks and 'water hammer', and increases water waste. Many plumbing codes require a pressure-reducing valve above a threshold for exactly this reason. The cheap, common failure it causes is a burst braided supply hose under a sink or behind a washer โ€” a major flood source. If this dashboard shows you consistently high, fit and set a PRV to the 3โ€“4 bar range.

How often should I log water pressure readings?+

Match the interval to the consequence and the rate of change: where an excursion spoils product or risks safety, log continuously (or as often as you can sample); where it is merely informative, daily or per-shift spot checks suffice. The in-range % and excursion count only mean something if your sampling is regular โ€” sparse, irregular readings hide the excursions between them.

Is my logged data private?+

Yes โ€” every reading is stored in this browser's localStorage on your device and nothing is uploaded to any server, which also makes the dashboard usable on sites with strict data policies. For shared, audit-grade records across a team or for regulatory retention, export the values into your own system.
