We need to get a regulator.  What pressure level is considered safe for our water system?  Amazon has regulators with an without a gauge. Thanks!

8 years ago, I switched from the built-in 50 that is behind the city water inlet to a 65. Have had no issues. Good water pressure from city water.

I would refer you to a post by Gerald Ferris from a few years ago:

Lawrence, I always check the park water pressure and if it is below 70 psig I don't use a regulator, my coach has all pex water lines and I've tested them to 100 psig. Here's  a link to a nice regulator like the one I use, there adjustable and work well.
