Then there's the city water supply, too. Sometimes the campground water pressure is low and lowers as more rigs are tapped in and this can cause the water pressure to drop too.

If we're lucky the campground water pressure is high and while I like using a water regulator that allegedly keeps the incoming water pressure to about 40 to 45 psi, this might not be enough for some of us. You can also purchase adjustable water regulators (my future plan) and set it to a higher setting like 50 to 65 psi. The RV plumbing is supposed to take this pressure.

The Oxygenics Shower Head has been a good solution for increasing the shower's water pressure, especially since this is your complaint, but this doesn't help the lavatory, sink, toilet, or outdoor shower. Like Bingo and others mention, do take care how much pressure is provided anywhere in the rig. If you make a change it's always good to be wary to check for leaks especially as the rig gets older and so does the plumbing.
