Sorry for what is probably a simple question but as we're new to this...

We bought a Renator water pressure regulator and were testing it out. However we realized that we were not certain what is considered optimal water pressure or even maximum water pressure for our R-Pod 195. The basic regulator that the dealer gave us just had 40-50 engraved on the side of it. It would be nice to be sure.

Thank you

Most of the electric water pumps connected to the water storage tank have a pressure of 45 to 50 psi.  Would not go above this.

You'll want more pressure than that, but the hoses in the older 'Pods, like mine, look like nylon reinforced sink sprayer hose, so i would not recommend going over 50 psi, either.
