Water regulator recommendation, 40-50 PSI OR 50-55 PSI for “better shower pressure”?

Should I go 40-50 PSI or 50-55 PSI for “better shower pressure” on a 2021 Seneca 37L? Any experiences with one v the other?

Thanks!
DC

I ran 50-55 for 40 years.

I set my pressure regulator at 60 to 70 psi.

Neither. Get an adjustable one so you can regulate the pressure to suit the park.

Check Amazon for adjustable RV water pressure regulator. You will find several. Mine is a Watts and is set for 60#. The standard for testing lines in an RV is 100# but I would not run it that high, even if the water pressure at the bib is that high.

Maybe your shower head has a water restrictor washer inside.

Look at what your system is rated for and go for the max. Replace water pump with better unit if you want more pressure than what you get with max. Pretty easy to run off pump even when you have city water hooked up. Safe travels

Enjoy the journey
