I'm not sure if it even makes a difference. My rig has an enclosed compartment for all the water and sewer hookups so it would be ideal to be able to keep it there.
Is this just a stupid question or does it make a difference which end of the hose I place the regulator?
One of the places I park (actually 2 0f them) have measured pressure at 120 PSI or more (Saw the gauge myself at the one I only visited once).. That kind of pressure can blow your hose up.. Just like in the cartoons.
So put it first.
