"100# water pressure..........GOOD REGULATOR !!! "
My thoughts exactly........ a high water pressure reading does not make it "good".. With those numbers. I would disconnect the water each time I leave. This kind of pressure will blow apart the water fittings - I would not trust the regulator (in this instance), I've had one which partially failed and took out a water fitting.

High water pressure isn't a problem for us and we can handle up to 200 psi (limited by the hose). I installed a Watts regulator inside and modified all the plastic pipe and fittings to brass upstream of the reg. Also have a high pressure Valterra hose. I installed a tell-tale gauge in the incoming side and somewhere this season the pressure got up to 120 psi. I've heard of some places getting up to or near 200 psi.
