Water pressure fix

A while back, someone on the forum recommended removing my external pressure regulator that was conflicting with the built in regulator. Removing the external regulator did correct the low pressure issue, though I now have no protection for my outside filters and softener.
Any ideas?

If your external regulator was adjustable, maybe put it back in place and try turning up the pressure a bit. I believe the internal regulator is supposed to be calibrated to 60 psi. Try running the external at 70 or so.

Fixed! I had it set to 70, though dropped to 30ish when the water was flowing. I cranked it up to 100 which is still 25 below the water softener max. It now flows at 60 psi and the water pressure in the trailer is good.
