Is this the type of regulator you are using?
They are actually just restrictors vs regulators.
Replace with an adjustable pressure regulator such as Watts
They are also re-buildable
Actually the item pictured is a pressure regulator- they are not a "restrictor." A restrictor reduces the volume of the water flow, but does nothing to the pressure. A water pressure regulator reduces the pressure and, in theory, does not restrict the flow, but some do only because of their construction.
That is correct, however they are troublesome and work poorly under some conditions.
