{"product_id":"camco-40055-brass-rv-water-pressure-regulator","title":"Camco 40055 Brass RV Water Pressure Regulator","description":"\u003cp class=\"nvn-hero\"\u003eThe Camco 40055 is the brass water pressure regulator we hand to anyone plugging into shore water they don't control. It caps incoming pressure at a preset 40 to 50 PSI, so a spike at the campground or marina spigot never reaches your plumbing. Lead-free brass, safe for drinking water, and it threads onto any standard hose. No gauge, just set-and-forget protection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-description\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHere's the thing about shore water: you never really know what you're plugging into. One marina runs a gentle 45 PSI. The next dock, or an older campground with a booster pump, can push 90 or even 100 PSI down the hose. Your boat's freshwater system and an RV's plumbing are both built for a moderate range, and that kind of spike is exactly what splits a fitting or blows a line behind a bulkhead where you won't find it until the floor's already wet. The Camco 40055 sits between the spigot and your hose and takes that risk off the table.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt's a simple, honest piece of gear. Solid brass body, preset from the factory to hold your incoming water in the 40 to 50 PSI range. There's nothing to dial in and nothing to fuss with. You thread it on, connect your drinking-water hose to the other end, and the regulator quietly does its job every time you hook up. We like set-and-forget parts for exactly this reason. The stuff that protects your boat shouldn't need babysitting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhy 40 to 50 PSI? That's the sweet spot for most coach and boat freshwater plumbing. High enough for a strong shower and a quick tank fill, low enough that your pump, hoses, and fittings aren't living under constant strain. Camco sets it there so you don't have to think about it. And a lot of the failures we see aren't one dramatic burst. They're months of a system quietly running 20 or 30 PSI too high until a seal finally gives up on a Tuesday afternoon.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe brass here is lead-free and safe for potable water, so you can run it on the same line you drink and cook from without a second thought. It also meets California and Vermont's low-lead brass-content rules, which are the strictest in the country. If a part passes those, it passes everywhere. The packaging comes labeled in English and French, so it's good to go whether you're cruising the Great Lakes or heading up into Canadian waters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is the no-gauge version, and that's worth understanding before you buy. It won't show you a live pressure reading. What it will do is hold the downstream pressure in that safe preset band. If you want to actually watch the incoming number, Camco makes a gauge-equipped version in the same family. But plenty of boaters and RVers don't care about the readout. They just want the protection, and for them the 40055 is the simpler, cleaner choice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation takes about ten seconds. Standard garden-hose threads on both ends mean it connects to any typical white drinking-water hose and any standard dock or campground spigot. Hand-tight is usually enough. We tell people to put the regulator right at the spigot rather than at the boat, so the full length of your hose is protected too, not just the coach. A hose left in the sun under 90 PSI is its own little failure waiting to happen.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWho's this for? Anyone who moves around. If you keep your boat on one slip with known, sane dock pressure, you might never need it. But the second you start traveling, staying at transient docks, visiting different marinas, or splitting time between the water and a campground, a regulator earns its keep on the first bad spigot you hit. It's cheap insurance against an expensive, messy repair. Throw one in the dock box and forget about it until the day it saves you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA quick note on care. Brass holds up well to weather and won't rot the way a plastic body can, but if you're storing the boat for winter, pull the regulator, drain it, and keep it somewhere it won't freeze. Trapped water freezing inside any brass fitting can crack it. Do that and this little regulator will outlast a lot of the gear on your boat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"nvn-features\"\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid brass body preset to 40-50 PSI, holds shore water in a safe range for RV and marine plumbing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLead-free brass, safe for potable drinking-water lines\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets California and Vermont low-lead brass-content standards, legal in every state\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStandard garden-hose threads on both ends, connects to any white drinking-water hose and any dock or campground spigot\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNo-gauge design, simple set-and-forget protection with nothing to adjust\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eInstalls hand-tight in seconds, best mounted right at the spigot to protect the full hose run\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eEnglish and French labeled packaging, ready for U.S. and Canadian travel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-trust\"\u003e\n  \u003ch2\u003eWhy Buy from NVN Marine\u003c\/h2\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eAuthorized Camco reseller, full manufacturer warranty\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eNMEA member and ABYC certified, advice from real boat techs\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eSame-day shipping before 3 PM ET on in-stock items\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eNY headquarters and Fort Lauderdale flagship retail store\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-faq\"\u003e\n  \u003cdetails\u003e\n    \u003csummary\u003eWhat pressure does the Camco 40055 limit water to?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eIt's preset at the factory to hold your incoming water in the 40 to 50 PSI range.
