I recently had a plumber in to do some work and he checked the pressure
guage and said the pressure was a little too high and we should
consider changing the guage. Cost was around $300. We have never heard
of this needing to be done so we're a little skeptical. Is this
something we should be doing? I don't remember the numbers but it
wasn't all that much higher than what it's supposed to be.

Yes Myrna, by all means get that defective "guage" replaced at once. A
gauge which gives incorrect readings should be condemned and properly
disposed of at a hazardous waste dump. Considering that, $300 seems
about right.

In all fairness, I think what she was talking about was having a
pressure regulator installed because the incoming water pressure is too
high. If it's above 80 or so, I would get one installed. And $300 for
that job, depending on what's involved, where it,s located, etc may not
be unreasonable.

I knew that .... but, "the Devil made me do it"....And uncle Schlomo is
