I am hooked up to city water at the campground. I have a pressure regulator attached to the water tap, then my hose to the city water intake. There are no kinks in the hose. I am barely getting any water coming out of the taps, just more than a trickle... I removed my pressure regulator and there is a ton of pressure coming out the campground tap...I am not going to hook my hose directly without the regulator so I put back on my water pressure regulator and barely a trickle...I dont have any water filters so what is causing the loss of pressure. Before I go and buy a new pressure regulator, I want to be sure there isnt someething else I should check. Is there any chance that the water flows through the pump ? I know there is a little screen filter on the intake side of the pump, but I would not think the city water would circulate through the pump.. is there a screen filter somewhere else I need to be checking and cleaning ?
THanks.. Bill
When did it first do this?? I mean has it always done so, or is this something new without any hardware changes? If new and OK before, then blockage or bad regulator. If it's always done so, I'd look for a built in restriction type regulator at the inlet somewhere and those I normally remove in favor of a whole house type and mounted at the water source. These can also have have a screen filter that could be blocked.
