You can get a pressure gauge at Amazon for about 10 bucks. Screws onto
a typical hose type fitting. May not be the problem, but good to know
anyway.

Selling a house the buyer inspector said my PSI was to high. During
the day when neighbors we all gone to work. Went in the house,
relieved all the water pressure, then replied -- no it isn't.

They bought the house without me putting in a pressure relief valve.
Pressure may or can be different when the water supply is under heavy
use.


The proper fix is to ensure the pressure regulator is set properly and install an expansion tank.

Most people don't give a **** until their plumbing bursts though.
