But it's a good idea to use a pressure regulator when water pressure is an unknown.

However, you have to do your part also which includes proper winterizing. 1 leak maybe, but 4 leaks and I begin to think "Operator Error". Not saying the fault is with the owner but seems highly irregular in my experience.
I don't think "OPERATOR ERROR" is a fair assessment.. I for have a 2012 Landmark also made by Heartland, and OP is correct in saying looks like a child plumbed it. The first morning I woke up to water all over the bathroom floor(bad connection at toilet). I have had countless leaks in my basement. Fix one and get two more leaks. I think I have them all fixed by now. This winter I plan on re-plumbing the entire water distribution panel with a manifold that has separate shut offs for hot and cold. Also I might add I'm a certified plumber.
