Apollo 36LF20601 Pressure Reducing Valve
The Apollo 36LF20601 is a lead-free bronze water pressure reducing valve with 1-1/4 inch NPT connections. It is designed for residential or light commercial plumbing systems where incoming supply pressure must be lowered to protect fixtures and piping. The valve arrives factory set at 50 psi and can be adjusted between 25 and 75 psi to suit local requirements. It meets ASSE 1003, CSA B356, CA AB1953 and VT ACT 193 standards.
Practical limits of the adjustable range
The valve regulates downstream pressure within the 25 to 75 psi adjustable range and is rated for a maximum working pressure of 300 psi. Maximum service temperature is 180 degrees Fahrenheit. Installations with supply pressure above 300 psi or temperatures exceeding 180 F require additional protection or a different valve class. The 1-1/4 inch NPT sizing fixes the flow capacity, so systems demanding higher flow may need a larger body.
Upgrading from fixed or non-compliant valves
This valve replaces older bronze units that contain lead or lack third-party certification for potable water. The jump is worth it when local codes require lead-free materials to CA AB1953 or VT ACT 193, or when an adjustable outlet pressure simplifies balancing across multiple fixtures. It is not for buyers who need a larger connection size, a higher temperature rating or a factory setting outside the 25 to 75 psi window.

Questions about this item
How do I choose between the available versions of the Apollo 36LF20601 pressure reducing valve?
The Apollo 36LF20601 is a single model with a 1-1/4 inch NPT connection and a 25-75 psi adjustable range. Select it when your pipe size and required pressure range match these specifications.
What does the 50 psi factory pressure setting mean once the valve is installed in a plumbing system?
The valve arrives preset to 50 psi. After installation, downstream pressure will be maintained at approximately 50 psi, and you can adjust it between 25 and 75 psi using the adjustment screw to suit your system.
What does the ASSE 1003 and CSA B356 certification cap in practice for this valve?
These certifications confirm the valve meets performance standards for water pressure reducing valves, including pressure regulation accuracy and durability, and verify compliance with low-lead requirements under CA AB1953 and VT ACT 193.
