The Camco regulator is one of my water-system purchases. In the diary, I planned the water-tank openings before adding the floor and wall finishes around the system.

The item in my kit
I bought Camco Brass RV Water-Pressure Regulator as part of my camper van equipment.
The Camco regulator is one of my water-system purchases. In the diary, I planned the water-tank openings before adding the floor and wall finishes around the system.
Where it fits my build
My Day 87 plan put the body openings ahead of the aluminum framing, flooring and wall panels. I specifically included the shower drain and the openings for three water tanks in that order of work.
I removed cargo tie-down hardware to leave mounting points for the extrusion framing, and removed door trim for the later insulation and paneling. SketchUp helped me plan how those separate jobs would fit together.

My build notes
The useful part of this diary entry is the sequence. I wanted to finish the drilling while the interior metal was bare, so later work would not mean opening finished surfaces again.
The photographs show my preceding floor-preparation session. Sweeping, washing and removing residue created the starting point for the interior work I described next.
I planned the openings and mounting access before enclosing the interior.
Alternative products
Two alternatives to compare
RVGUARD and Renator add a pressure gauge and an adjustable regulator body. Those controls and the larger assembly distinguish them from the compact Camco inline fitting.
RVGUARD Adjustable Water Regulator
This brass RV regulator combines an adjustable control with a pressure gauge. An inlet screen sits in the hose-connection assembly.
