water pressure reducer

I have a 2015 premier 19fbpr, was wondering if i need to use a water pressure reducer like i did with my 07 surveyor? i have been using it but the pressure at the taps are weak.

  • PEX can handle in excess of 100# ......fittings, well not as high.

    A water pressure regulator is a good tool.

    Low pressure........
    Could be clogged regulator
    Could be low CG pressure
    Could be clogged water filter
    Could be clogged screen/washer at city water connection
    Could be clogged faucet aerators
  • Get a $12 Camco "High Flow" (blue collar) regulator and it will be set for 50 PSi and give you all the volume you can use.
  • throw away the cheap $9 walmart special and get a watts type.

    Unless you are alawys guaranteed to have weak pressure it is better to have a water pressure regulator and not ever worry about blowing your lines which are typically rated for around 50 psi. It does not have to be an expensive one either.
  • I suggest one that is high volum, 50 PSI.
    Many of the will not only lower the pressure but the volum also.
