Is there a way to reduce water pressure at an outdoor faucet?
Here is the situation. My brewery is located in a detached garage about 40' from the city water supply. I have a drinking water hose connected to an outside faucet on the house which runs to a water manifold in the garage for brewdays. My water pressure seems to fluctuate. I have ruptured two hoses and always occurs when I have left the water on for a period of time without using it. I have tried with the faucet wide open and partially open and does not seem to make a difference.
I would rather not mess with the water pressure in the house as it is a rental and seems normal. I put a water pressure regulator on the faucet. It successfully reduced the pressure in the hose, however it caused the house plumbing to groan and shreik to the point I thought something was going to rupture.
Does anyone else have any experience or advice they could offer?
