Need for connections when camping.

I finally got the chance to use these as most of our campsites are paddocks. The product worked as it should. My husband made a small adjustment to create a little more water pressure in our setup. We love that you have the ability to do this with this particular controller if needed. Item arrived slightly damaged due to the reader telling you your psi was wobbly. I didn't realize it until we finally got to use it. But it still did what it was designed to do.

Pros
  • Adjustment screw in lid to select desired pressure
Cons
  • Transparency

Poor build quality and design flaws

Two problems.1. Flow out of the plastic fitting at the junction with the brass body. No water flowed out, but enough to form a sizeable puddle after 24 hours. The threaded connector it attaches to on the RV isn't "deep" enough which means I can't get a really solid connection between the RV's hose bib and the regulator. Yes, I could add another hose washer and will do so as a short term fix until a new (non-Camco) regulator arrives, but it's still a design flaw.

Pros
  • Help prevent damage to your RV and boat equipment, plumbing and hoses due to intermittent or high water pressure
Cons
  • Expensive

Poorly designed plastic cap

After about a year of continuous use, the threads on the black plastic cap began to leak. I fiddled with it a bit to reseal it, but the plastic part has very thin threads so you can't tighten it any further. I was able to bolt it on using a 1 1/2 ABS threaded barrel with the top cap glued on and a screw screwed into the top to adjust the pressure. The 1 1/2 piece of pipe allowed me to tighten it much more tightly which tightened the rubber gasket to prevent leakage. If you have high water…

Pros
  • Not recommended for settings over 60psi
Cons
  • Not reliable

Worked fine for a while, but the sensor is unreliable.

I bought this to regulate the pressure in my RV. I went almost a year without her. Colleagues have told me that this is both necessary to avoid damage to the pipes from too much pressure and to increase the pressure as needed to get better shower pressure. When I installed it for the first time I was happy with the set pressure. However, a few months later I checked it out and the pressure gauge read 150 pounds of pressure. It's too high. I turned it off a bit and there was no water. I bumped…

Pros
  • Durable lead free brass construction
Cons
  • Guard
