Pressure regulator for "City Water" Hookup

OP maybe you have some common sense.

Why would anybody risk a plumbing failure that could destroy your rv when it is so easily avoided?

If in doubt re-read old biscout post above.

Yes, at Grand Sierra Resort in Reno but they warned you as you registered. Guy next to me didn’t use any regulator..bad mess. I used a regulator and it still popped the water heater pressure valve...no damage. I have not connected to city water since. I will never again connect to a city water supply

Traveler's camp ground in South San Antonio, Texas tells the customers to use a pressure regulator, they sell them at the front office in case that the camper does not have one, incoming pressures vary from 120 to 180, so yes buy one that is of good quality, the cheap ones last until the chlorine in the water expands the rubber inside and the flow stops, get one that you can adjust and has a gauge.

Not far fetched. We have a Alde system in our rig. When the cg pressure is too high it has a built in relief valve. To keep water from draining all the time. We use a regulator on the incoming line. It isn't too high in all cg's but we use the regulator all the time.

A GOOD water pressure regulator will Hold/Maintain set pressure if supply pressure is higher and will allow all the supply pressure if it is lower then reg set point

YES, have seen CG supply pressures as high as 120#...........which can cause fittings to leak

A GOOD regulator is a WATTS Adjustable Regulator with pressure gauge
Set it for 50# (Static--no flow)


OR even better is to fill fresh water tank and use the pump.
Constant pressure/flow
Easy to turn OFF when you go to bed, go outside or leave CG vs having to valve out CG spigot

Use to connect to city water all the time when available until a cracked fitting broke during night while sleeping...water ran for HOURS.FLOODED 5th wheel $60000 in repairs/costs (was using a WATTS Regulator)
Since then (2008) fresh water tank/pump ONLY
