I should have mentioned that sometimes the overloads need a hearty push, but it sounded like you had a handle on it.

I had already pushed what I would consider very hard. But not Gorilla hard.

Do you have a water pressure gauge ln there where it is easy to see?

This is mine in the bathroom showing 38 pounds on the 100 pound water pressure gauge.:

Thinking about changing it to a 0-80 pound gauge.

My pressure gauge is in the mechanical room. Pressure ranges from 40-68. Toilet pressure tank would get complaints from the staff.

I really like this idea, but not the location.

Most people don't have any idea how much water pressure they have, or how much water is seeping through the valves on their toilets. From what I've been told, when somebody gets one of those massive water bills for a ridiculous amount of water, it's because of too much water pressure.

If I ever get around to it, I think it would be a good idea to put a gauge on my water line in my utility room, by the water heater.

When I hear my well pump kick on, I know that water is being used. Usually I can look back toward the barn and see that the horses are drinking. My gauge is in the basement near the pressure switch.
