Re: [a/s] high pressure hose



Any decent garden-type hose (but white to ID it as drinking water *only*) 
should work, but it would probably be a good idea to get a small pressure 
regulator ($10-$20) to put on the inlet end of the hose. That will assure 
that you've only got about 35# of pressure in the hose even if the 
hook-up is supplying something horrendous. (Where we live, the city 
supply sometimes reaches 150#!) And, though many (most? all? Airstreams 
have built-in pressure regulators, it doesn't hurt to have that double 
protection--you *really* don't to blow up those internal lines.
