NEVER use more than 1 pressure regulator at a time. Adding an extra will indeed diminish flow and pressure. I have a hook up at work to demonstrate this. I connect a standard in line RV regulator to the end of the shop hose(shop about 65 psi). I then add the 2nd and then 3rd Regulator and the customer sees that the volume pressure is almost none. MY preference is to have the Water Regulator(adjustable) at the CG faucet to help protect my potable feed hose from the sun and excess pressure. Doug
This is the correct answer, unfortunately, if you do a search with that regulator for leaks, you will find that it is a plastic Chinese multi piece assembly that is notorious for leaking at the seams.
This happened to me as well as many others, the best solution is to gut the face plate, install a solid metal inlet fitting in the original faceplate and start using a pressure regulator at the supply faucet as suggested.
