Water pressure

Yes I just put a plier on the piece on the hose inlet (just below the plastic cover) and unscrewed it. That’s the regulator. Just screw in a new one. Problem solved.

Thanks. Could you post a picture of your setup? I wonder if mine may be different?
My city water inlet just barely peeks out below the lower horizontal surface ot the fiberglass trim panel. Only the threaded hose-collar is visible. If that's the pressure regulator I can't see anything above the threaded hose coupling.
I've considered cutting some access holes in the panel to try and see what's going on back there.
Thanks,
Walter

I have the following, but how high CAN we allow the pressure ?

Forehead slap here we go ..... I have heard any where from 20-80. I think it all depends on year of coach, type of plumbing, and fixtures. I heard that my Monaco exe with Pex was tested at the factory to 120 psi, not sure I believe that. I have mine set at 55 have not had an issue think it’s enough to provide for our needs. I think the reducer I removed was 40 and thought that was a bit low.

To clarify 55 works for me I don’t know your coach and please don’t blame me if at 55 you pop a leak.

Does your look like this? Just remove the highlighted inlet fitting (see attachment) and that is also the regulator?
Thanks,
Walter

Never mind. Got some pliers and got my answer... Indeed that inlet fitting IS the regulator with garden hose fittings on each end. I figured it had to be more complicated than that.
Attached is the regulator I removed. There appears to be a check valve in the fitting above the regulator.

Cheers,
