Does anyone know if Foretravel (or RVs in general) rate their interior water plumbing at some PSI?
Thanks

Bob,
You can try a search of the archives. We, too, have a 2000 coach, but we always use a Watts water pressure regulator and we are trying real hard to remember to TURN OFF the water bib and the pump whenever we leave the coach.
update:
I tried a search but could not find anything. You can always call James Triana at the factory. He would know.

We keep our Watts regulator at 55 lbs and thought we had a lot of margin over that. :)) I tried a search before my post and also could not find the psi. Somewhere, I thought I read 85 lbs.

As the factory installed pressure regulator is good for 40psi, I would
"assume" the plumbing would handle that pressure. Above that amount, it would be a guess.
Where is the factory installed regulator located. I use to in-line regulators, one on campground bib, another at the inlet to my filter.
I wonder what the water pump pressure is? It provides a lot more pressure than shore water which is at about 45 psi due to the pressure reducer that we routinely use.

The Aquajet ours came with is spec'd 5.3 gpm, 65 psi @ 10 amps.

On mine, it is located behind the panel where the "city" water connection is mounted.
The hole in it that passes the water is slightly over 1/4" in diameter.
As we never hook up to city water even for a short while, I removed the regulator to improve water flow. I am considering getting a Watts regulator with more pass through capacity. We always operate off of the internal water pump.
