I just replaced the water pressure regulator on my house, city pressure was 130 and my regulator which should drop it to 50 did not.
So of course it makes me wonder what others are doing on coach for water pressure regulation for the city side.

Camping World along with most others has water pressue regulators. I use a small one that goes in the city intake hose. Works for me.
Note. I only use local city water to wash with. I carry bottled water to drink and cook with. Keeps the deli belly away. Also use the bottled water for the cats that I carry along. Sick animals are no fun.

Brian,
Even though Avion's had a 40 psi water pressure regulator built in from the factory I have a second one in the line I connect to
city water.
Having said that I came to the conclusion that Gene's mantra of "never connect to city water" was right; if something goes wrong you
wake up with Lake Mead in your GMC.
This past summer Helen and I even disciplined ourselves to turn the pump on when we needed water pressure and off when we were done
with what we were doing.

Samesame for me. The idea of a white coated dog with dysentery is frightening. Someone at a show commented on the'snobs' who had put all the empty water bottles in the garbage. I told her, "Not for the people, for the dogs" and got a real funny look.
