And, once again, life is good.

Glad you figured that out as it was becoming a real head-scratcher.

Don't ya hate that! It's like: "No, your other left". Glad you found it, it wasn't making sense!

Have you noticed that when things screw up the first thing somebody says is often something like, "Well, I THOUGHT it was downstream of the pressure regulator."

Proving once again that thinking may well be the underlying reason for most problems.

Read and believe. You have flow somewhere. Or they installed a regulator somewhere. Static pressure has no flow so the pressure equalizes. Once flow starts, there is a pressure drop. Pressure == voltage. Flow == current. pipe/hose == resistance.

Think - underground new pipes - plastic ? crushed ? pinched off ? Something is rotten in the concepts - measured on which side ?

Glad I could add to the repertoire
