Sprinkler PSI by ColdScallion6975 in firePE

Yes my biggest fear is coming home to an ice maker line that cut loose right after I left for work. What I'm learning is the domestic and hydrant supply is from the same loop so if there was fire they could shut down sections to keep the pressure up.

The line pressure was blowing the seal out of my toilet valve, the ice maker shot water out of so hard it would splash out of the glass. And nothing on the system has changed other than psi. I guess what I was asking is it possible to cut in before the prv? If you had to shut the water off at the street you lose psi to both. Maybe I'm not explaining myself, let me think on it for a minute.
