I believe my Airstream, a 1989 29' Excella has an internal water pressure regulator. Don't all Airstreams?
Yes they do, at least as far back as 69, possibly further. By using a pressure regulator at the faucet you are also protecting your supply hose. I have a 100 lb pressure guage on a hose fitting. On a few occasions I have seen the gauge pegged when hooked to the campground faucet. Your airstream
will also have an overpressure safety valve.( or at least my 70 does) If the regulator isn't doing the job this will open and release the pressure.
