I am in the process of buying a Watts Regulator for the RV. What I am wanting to know is what Model is best for this application and where is the best place (price wise) to purchase it?
Thank You

Give this guy a call. He is a long time RVer and really knows his stuff and has a full line of regulators.

The H560 has a dial readout and is sized for use on std garden hose size fittings. The problem is that I have never ben able to ind this model at Lowes, Home Depot or Ace. You may have to locate at an RV dealer/parts and accessory place. You can probably do a search and order it on-line as well.

I have seen watts regulators at selected camping world stores
Lowes and Home Depot have them
I would look for model with 3/4" threaded inlet and outlet
WHY you ask
Because one of the easiest hose adapter fittings to find, most every hardware INCLUDING Lowes and Home Depot has 'em. is a male or female hose end with a 1/2 inch IPT inside thread and a 3/4 IPT outside thread on the other end
So to connect this one to a hose you need 2 pieces of brass.. .Nothing more
Any other model you need more
Nothin adds excitment like something that is none of your business

I have a water regulator that I leave on my hose, and I have seen as high as 110 lbs. at a few campgrounds. What is the plumbing rated in most motor homes? My regulator is set for 45, and I don't think I would want to go over 60.

it's been a long time since I set my regulator, I'm not sure what pressure I set it for. If you go to HD or Lowes you should be able to get the gage, and all the fittings all in one stop. The one at CW does have every thing installed all ready and it is cheaper than if you buy the parts and put it together.

I bought THIS ONE off of E-Bay. I'll plumb it into the remote water filter with quick disconnects on the hose ends.
