Odd water pressure issue
Arrived a day early to a commercial campground, hooked up, and all was good for a day. On day 2, when campground got busy, we began having water issues. Water would flow briefly from faucets, then stop. Removed hose, and flow from campground supply was strong. Reconnected, and same problem. Disconnected hose and checked flow through hose - water starts, then stops. I assumed a clogged filter and removed. Same problem. Removed everything except regulator, and found the problem. The campground water pressure was TOO high for the regulator to handle. In fact, the pressure was so high, we could feel the ground shaking when opening the valve!
Solved problem by filling the tank and using the pump, but that was a first for me!
I assume they increased the pressure in anticipation of increased use, but we've camped in this same location with no issues in the past.
