Water Pressure

I have a standard water pressure regulator that I use, but the amount of water coming out is really poor. I want to get an adjustable regulator, but I don't know how much pressure my 2012 Montana 3750FL can handle. Can anyone tell me where I can get that info?

I have made up my regulator using a 3/4" adjustable household regulator and pressure gauge. I have the pressure set at 55 PSI and have used it at that pressure on three different RVs with no problem. Of course if the camp ground pressure is less than 55 PSI you will read the lesser pressure.

I run ours at 60 psi on the adjustable one from CW. WE have had no problems.

We also run at 60psi, but have only been close to that twice. Both times, however the regulator was needed as the pressure was north of 100psi.

I have had my adjustable regulator set as high as 80 PSI but I try to keep it around 60 PSI.

I bought my adjustable on Amazon close in price to Camping
world when on sale. Set at 60 psi also, used an $8.00 Wally World before , the new one increased the flow signifcantly.

Recently I also noticed a rig using a cheap Walmart hose. The diameter was small and that will affect flow also.
