Question Residual pressure valves question

I've read that 2lb residual pressure valves are needed if the master cylinder reservoir is level with or below the calipers. Mine are OK in that regard.

QUESTION: Are the residual pressure valves needed if the brake lines themselves are located about a foot above both the master cylinder and the calipers?

My brake pedal isn't as high or firm initially as I'd like. Two quick presses firms it up some.
