All leaking internal clean water pipes (hot or cold), fittings and valves from the point the supply enters the house up to and including the shut-off valve before each fixture
The curb box allows access to the curb valve, and the curb valve is the valve located on your property that can be used to shut off the water in the event of an emergency water line leak.
The Water Line Protection Plan covers from where your water service line connects to your main water valve in your basement to the curb valve located on your property. In some instances, you may also own and be responsible for the water line in the street, which runs from your curb valve on your property to the water main in the street. (We suggest you contact your local water utility for clarification.)
No, the main shut-off valve in your home is not covered under the Water Line Protection Plan. It is the point where the water service line coming into your home ends. We consider the main valve as part of your internal plumbing. If you would like coverage for the main shut-off valve, please review our In-Home Plumbing Protection Plan.
All plans take effect 30 days after the enrollment is processed and payment received, regardless of whether you pay by check, bank account or with a credit card. In some cases, we may need to perform an on-site inspection, so we provide customers with a 30-day window to account for this possibility.
After a boiler has been engineered, built and tested for a given operating pressure there is only one reliable way to prevent operation of the boiler above this design pressure. This is a safety valve. The safety valve should be sized so that a single valve can handle the maximum steam production rate of the boiler and once open prevent boiler pressure to continue to rise. Standard operating procedure for the last century has been to install two safety valves on the boiler, one set 3-5 lbs below the design pressure and one valve set at the design pressure.
The 1st valve listed below is a true adjustable differential pop valve. The differential is adjured through the differential rings lock screw hole, from 3 PSI to whatever the operator desires. The pressure of the valve can be adjusted from 40 to 200 PSI.
The other valves listed are adjustable for release pressure and have a "pop" action: The pressure differential is not adjustable on these valves. If the valves are operated above their nominal pressure, the set-reset differential increases. If operated at lower pressure, the differential decreases to the point of disappearing about 10-15% below nominal pressure.

Maintaining safe operating conditions can be challenging in deep-set or deepwater, high-pressure/high-temperature (HP/HT) wells. The REACH™ subsurface safety valve from Baker Hughes provides an answer, with fail-safe operation in a wide range of deep-set completions that require low operating pressures due to control system limitations.
REACH safety valves are designed to provide reliable sealing in deep, HP/HT wells. They can be set up to 20,000 ft (6,096 m) below sea level and withstand temperatures up to 400°F (205°C) and pressures up to 20,000 psi (1,379 bar).
REACH safety valves are V1 validated and have undergone the stringent prototype testing per API SPEC 14A, Specification for Subsurface Safety Valve Equipment, Twelfth Edition. Our safety valve specialists have continuously modified the design to accommodate the new V1 validation specifications while progressively exceeding the requirements set forth by API.
REACH valves rely on field-proven, heavy-sprung closure technology to ensure fail-safe-closed operation. Because tubing pressure is isolated from the control system, the valve can open at much lower operating pressures, reducing the cost of umbilicals in some applications.
The valve’s unique activation system requires lower valve operating pressures than previous safety valve designs by eliminating the need to overcome tubing pressure, making the valve ideal for applications with opening pressure limitations including: subsea completions, high-pressure wells, and fields where the rig site and other control facilities may have supply pressure limitations.
REACH valves incorporate several proven features from other safety valve designs, including flapper closure technology, RBT housing thread technology, dynamic seal technology, and debris exclusion geometries—all of which help deliver integrated functionality and dependability.
To ensure long term reliability, the valve is also offered with a reinforced dynamic seal configuration, upgraded dynamic seal materials, internal alignment enhancements, and an enhanced scraper ring to minimize debris. Because the REACH valve does not utilize gas springs, the operating seals and gland do not experience pressure reversals, making them ideal for your critical deepwater HP/HT applications
A pressure safety valve actuated by inlet static pressure and characterized by rapid opening or rapid popping action. This safety valve is tight shut-off and is for safety only. Meets ASME SEC. VIII (Not a Fulflo valve)
A spring loaded pressure relief valve, actuated by the static pressure upstream of the valve. The valve opens normally in proportion to the increase in pressure over the set pressure. (Fulflo)
A pressure relief valve characterized by rapid opening or pop-action in direct proportion to the pressure increase, depending on the application. (Fulflo)
The pressure existing at the outlet of a pressure relief valve, due to the pressure in the discharge system. The pressure can be constant or variable. It is the sum of the superimposed and build-up pressure.
Fulflo was established in 1912 and is celebrating its 100th anniversary. Located in Blanchester, OH, Fulflo was incorporated in 1933 under its present name and trademark. Patents for the original guided piston, direct acting relief valve were obtained in 1935, coinciding with the onset of fluid power systems. The need for providing large flows without excessive bulk was met by the pilot-valve-control relief valve which was patented in 1943.
Fulflo parts and valves are used in oil and gas refineries, are essential to the military, including ships and aircraft carriers, and amusement roller coaster rides.

As soon as mankind was able to boil water to create steam, the necessity of the safety device became evident. As long as 2000 years ago, the Chinese were using cauldrons with hinged lids to allow (relatively) safer production of steam. At the beginning of the 14th century, chemists used conical plugs and later, compressed springs to act as safety devices on pressurised vessels.
Early in the 19th century, boiler explosions on ships and locomotives frequently resulted from faulty safety devices, which led to the development of the first safety relief valves.
In 1848, Charles Retchie invented the accumulation chamber, which increases the compression surface within the safety valve allowing it to open rapidly within a narrow overpressure margin.
Today, most steam users are compelled by local health and safety regulations to ensure that their plant and processes incorporate safety devices and precautions, which ensure that dangerous conditions are prevented.
The principle type of device used to prevent overpressure in plant is the safety or safety relief valve. The safety valve operates by releasing a volume of fluid from within the plant when a predetermined maximum pressure is reached, thereby reducing the excess pressure in a safe manner. As the safety valve may be the only remaining device to prevent catastrophic failure under overpressure conditions, it is important that any such device is capable of operating at all times and under all possible conditions.
Safety valves should be installed wherever the maximum allowable working pressure (MAWP) of a system or pressure-containing vessel is likely to be exceeded. In steam systems, safety valves are typically used for boiler overpressure protection and other applications such as downstream of pressure reducing controls. Although their primary role is for safety, safety valves are also used in process operations to prevent product damage due to excess pressure. Pressure excess can be generated in a number of different situations, including:
The terms ‘safety valve’ and ‘safety relief valve’ are generic terms to describe many varieties of pressure relief devices that are designed to prevent excessive internal fluid pressure build-up. A wide range of different valves is available for many different applications and performance criteria.
In most national standards, specific definitions are given for the terms associated with safety and safety relief valves. There are several notable differences between the terminology used in the USA and Europe. One of the most important differences is that a valve referred to as a ‘safety valve’ in Europe is referred to as a ‘safety relief valve’ or ‘pressure relief valve’ in the USA. In addition, the term ‘safety valve’ in the USA generally refers specifically to the full-lift type of safety valve used in Europe.
Pressure relief valve- A spring-loaded pressure relief valve which is designed to open to relieve excess pressure and to reclose and prevent the further flow of fluid after normal conditions have been restored. It is characterised by a rapid-opening ‘pop’ action or by opening in a manner generally proportional to the increase in pressure over the opening pressure. It may be used for either compressible or incompressible fluids, depending on design, adjustment, or application.
Safety valves are primarily used with compressible gases and in particular for steam and air services. However, they can also be used for process type applications where they may be needed to protect the plant or to prevent spoilage of the product being processed.
Relief valve - A pressure relief device actuated by inlet static pressure having a gradual lift generally proportional to the increase in pressure over opening pressure.
Relief valves are commonly used in liquid systems, especially for lower capacities and thermal expansion duty. They can also be used on pumped systems as pressure overspill devices.
Safety relief valve - A pressure relief valve characterised by rapid opening or pop action, or by opening in proportion to the increase in pressure over the opening pressure, depending on the application, and which may be used either for liquid or compressible fluid.
In general, the safety relief valve will perform as a safety valve when used in a compressible gas system, but it will open in proportion to the overpressure when used in liquid systems, as would a relief valve.
Safety valve- A valve which automatically, without the assistance of any energy other than that of the fluid concerned, discharges a quantity of the fluid so as to prevent a predetermined safe pressure being exceeded, and which is designed to re-close and prevent further flow of fluid after normal pressure conditions of service have been restored.
