PRV on water line?

It is a must! I now put mine right on the camp ground connection.

Ditto. I install mine on the spigot too.

When I leave the campsite for the day, I ALWAYS turn off the spigot too.

NOT using a pressure regulator is foolish in my view.

Freep, I stay at RV parks only when I can't dump and fill with fresh water elsewhere. Last trip...one night. So that night I hooked and took a long shower. (Sinful, I know) Lots of USFS and BLM campgrounds on the eastern Sierras don't have dumps or fresh water and I was headed to one.

Wouldn't you just top off your fresh water tank instead?

I would guess it would cut down flow. now I "assume" that does not mean pressure.
I thought we were talking about cutting down on waste water?

Well my question was really a two parter, I usually camp on the beach so going to a campground is something we rarely (never) do and Water always comes from the tank in the camper, I have a pressure reducing valve on board just in case we get to a campground

Now seeing it's supposed to rain from Thursday to Monday we're thinking of staying home

I'm never in an rv park long enough to hook the water up - I drain my tanks if they need it and just fill my fw tank and head out.

I worked at a "resort" that had about 80 psi. We sold alot of hoses and pressure regulators.

Some folks just wont listen. LOL!!!

What really surprises me is how many parks don't have anti-back-flow valves on their spickets.

I carry a Camco preset (no adjustment regulator) in the drawer just in case. Better safe than sorry.

in case of what? a hose bursts?

In case I happen to land in a campground and hook up to their water....

Not my usual thing as I camp in the woods, but you never know...
