What do yall run (psi) for your pressure reducers. I was extreamly disgusted with the pressure we had for the shower. The faucets are good but the shower stinks. Could it also just be the shower head installed?

Thanks,

Chris

My pressure regulator is set at 45psi and I replaced my shower head with the Body Spa.

Well, if it's the tank drain line it should have a valve or a cap.

pirate- switching out to the oxygenics shower head really helped us. It has better water pressure and uses less water. It needs an additional cut off switch (got this at Home Depot) so you have an easy water cutoff when not camping on full hook ups.

this sounds like your low point drains are not completely closed. ours had a cap on it that twists on/off but some might just be a twist valve that needs to be tightened.

The new model now has a push button cut-off switch.

like others have said, regulated to 45psi and change the shower head. the one that comes with the trailer is horrible.

you need to install a cap on the tank drain. your dealer should have provided this, possibly in the bag with all the manuals.

hope this helps
Jason

fid,
Look in the outside where your hot water heater is...both of the units I purchased it was sitting there.

And the oxygenics is unbelievable...nice install...took it out of my 2012 and had it put in my new 2013
