Camco Brass Water Pressure Regulator with Gauge- Helps Protect RV Plumbing and Hoses from High-Pressure City Water - Easy Read Gauge (40064)

This Camco brass water pressure regulator with gauge is an absolute must-have for RV owners. The built-in gauge lets you see exactly what pressure you're dealing with at each campsite, which is invaluable. Some campgrounds have dangerously high water pressure that can damage RV plumbing, and this regulator protects against that. The all-brass construction is quality—no cheap plastic components that'll crack or fail. It feels substantial and well-made. The threads are clean and seal properly without leaks. The gauge is easy to read and appears to be accurate based on comparing it to other pressure measurements. The regulator does its job perfectly, limiting incoming pressure to safe levels for RV systems. I've hooked up to campground water supplies ranging from weak to excessively high pressure, and this regulator handles it all. No more worrying about blown fittings or damaged water lines. Installation is simple—just thread it onto the campground spigot before connecting your water hose. The compact size doesn't add much bulk to your setup. Easy to store when not in use. This inexpensive part can save you from expensive plumbing repairs. Every RV owner should have one of these in their setup.

Works as advertised

I recently purchased a new house. When spring came around it was time to garden. I hooked up a garden hose and was blasted in the face when the hose burst. I found that the outdoor hose was hooked up directly to the city water line before the pressure regulator that goes to my house. I connected this adapter to the outside faucet and it did the trick. The pressure is now regulated and no more hose blow outs. The only problem I have had is that the regulator cavitates when I have a spray attachment hooked up to it. It shakes the pipes and makes loud noises. Not sure how to stop that.

Perfect regulator, easy to install. Very satisfied with my purchase. Great price and works great.

Great gauge

Works as stated! Good quality as well!

NOT ACCURATE. 35 PSI was the most it let through. I checked it with another gauge. (That one is accurate. Our house is regulated at the water meter for 60 PSI. This gauge reads the house at 60.) I will be returning the Camco. PROS: * Small footprint. MUCH less bulky than the adjustable ones * Nice fit and finish on the brass parts * "Tabbed" hose collar makes it easy to install/remove from a source CONS: * Gauge lens is plastic, so be careful with it, though that's probably the case with most RV regulators. This one "feels" more fragile than other ones I've had. * Apparently, ours is only "preset" to in the high 30's PSI. The needle barely gets out of the yellow, and the pressure in our RV is noticeably lower than with an old adjustable regulator, set to 50 PSI. Something closer to 45 PSI would be nice. "MEHS" * Tri-color gauge is easy to read, but it would be nice if it had numbers. Since the unit is marked "40 - 50 PSI", I'm assuming that's the range of the green bar. * Tabbed collar makes it easier for a "Campground-klepto" to take it This regulator has its pro's and con's, but a regulator of some kind is a necessary item. If you don't care about lower pressure, at least this should prevent damage.

There are pressure reducing valves everywhere but this one with the gauge makes a HUGE difference. I arrived at a campground and after hooking up found that I had low pressure inside my RV. I was able to check the pressure at the post without disconnecting anything and found that there was low pressure at the post. I learned that during certain times of day, the campground pressure dips. This device allowed me to check water pressure BEFORE I got into the shower to ensure I would have adequate pressure. Not sure why anyone would buy a pressure reducer WITHOUT a gauge. This is my second time buying one of these. My first one lasted five years before the gauge broke. Would have no problem buying another in five more years!

Worked perfectly for my rv

Quality item. Arrived in good time. Price was good

I really like how easy it is to read the regulator and to ensure that I am not damaging the RV pipes. I know there are folks who will say that they have never used one in all the years they have been camping. This is true, but it only takes that one time. Better to be safe than sorry. Great product and solidly built, highly recommended.

Seems to work great

Useful addition to water system. I was surprised at the first location we used it how low the pressure was. Being able to see the pressure build as you open the tap is a good way to know when to stop and restrict the pressure to the onboard plastic pipe system.
