140 PSI water pressure is in violation of SS 636:2018 – Code of Practice for Water Services, Clause 6.7. According to the standard:
In tall buildings, fittings should not be subjected to pressures greater than 35 metres head, which is approximately 50 PSI
Unsafe unlicensed installation
- An unlicensed replacement of a storage water heater may result in missing critical safety components, such as the double check valve (also known as an anti-backflow valve). This valve is essential to prevent contaminated water from flowing back into the potable water supply.
- Without this safeguard:
- Backflow contamination can occur, introducing bacteria, rust, and other harmful substances into the drinking water.
- This can lead to health risks including infections, chronic illnesses, and other serious complications—especially for children, the elderly, and those with weakened immune systems.
- It also violates PUB regulations, putting the household at legal and safety risk.
- To ensure compliance and protect your family’s health, always engage a PUB Licensed Plumber for installation and replacement works.
