Shurflo Pressure Reducing City Water Entry Valve 183-029-14, Wall Mount, Chrome, 65 PSI
The Shurflo 183-029-14 is a wall-mount, chrome-finish pressure reducing city water entry valve designed to protect an RV or boat's fresh water plumbing from high-pressure municipal or dockside water connections. It threads inline between the shore water hose and the vessel's water inlet, automatically limiting incoming water pressure to 65 PSI so that pumps, fittings, hoses, and fixtures downstream are not subjected to damaging pressure spikes.
The valve has a threaded inlet and a threaded outlet, with a 3/4 inch GHT female swivel inlet connection and a 1/2 inch NPSM male outlet connection, giving it two total ports. It is built with a metal body and a chrome exterior finish for a durable, corrosion-resistant, leak-tight fit that is stress and crack resistant. A built-in pressure reducing check valve is integrated into the unit, eliminating the need to install a separate inline check valve, and the valve meets or surpasses applicable check valve code requirements.
Because the check valve function is built in, this fitting also helps prevent backflow at the city water connection point. It is intended for wall mounting at the water fill location.
