About 2 weeks ago I pulled into a campground and for the first time ever, a campground owner cautioned me about the water pressure there. Told me it was real high and I absolutely should use a pressure regulator. If you didn't have one, what would you do ?

I now have a Watts adjustable model sitting on the table in front of me to be installed tomorrow. So maybe all those folks that say to just buy a Watts do know what they're talking about. . . . .

If I didn't have a quality pressure regulator at a campground, I would use my filter, and fill the potable water tank and run off of the 12 volt pump.
