    1) Are you referring to pump bowl pressure, and
    2) If you are, why would you want to "decrease" it???

    Water Rat,
    Duanne at HTP has a valve that will fix that problem. If you are talking about water line presure. I have heard that that water presure can be as high as 250lbs. And that is way tooo high. In a car the radiator has a 12 - 24 psi cap. It is amazing the amount of people that will disagree with you on this matter but Duanne has heard the few and has made a valve that will fix this problem for us. Duanne posts here reguarly so direct this to him.

    I use a pressure reducing valve from grainger. I had to remove the screen trap from the valve because it was too fine but it seems to work great now. Its a Watts, p/n N35BU which is a Grainger p/n 6LM11. Its a 1 inch outside thread but the inside it threaded 3/4NPT. also shown is a raw water strainer.
