Discuss Is this Mains water pressure tester any good and what sort of tap do I use it on? in the Plumbing Jobs | The Job-board area at PlumbersForums.net
slightly cheaper and more use as wellYes I'm glad I bought this rather than a 10mm pipe straightener.

just remember to take check valves into account when measuring dynamic pressures.

Does this slow the pressure down then and give an inaccurate reading due to the check valve bore hole being narrow etc?
Excuse my naivety here!
Pressure won't drop as check valve won't release it back into system
View attachment 6777The Rothenberger water pressure gauge comes in two sizes, up to 6 bar and up to 10 bar. Toolstation do the 0 to 6 bar one for £58, and B& Q do the 0 to 10 bar one for £67. I use the Monument one which is fine for checking if the pressure is too high for some electric showers which can only take 6 bar, and in some of my town it can go up to 8 bar. So the 6 bar rothenberger wouldn't do for me, and the 10 bar one probably does the same job as the Monument. (and screws apart to fit onto 3/4 inch threads)
