How to Fix RV Toilet Water Pressure

Giriş

If your RV toilet sprays water outside the bowl when flushing, the water pressure may be too high. Installing a water pressure regulator will reduce the toilet’s pressure without lowering water pressure to the rest of your RV.

This repair is straightforward and doesn’t require special skills, but you will need to know how to turn off the RV’s water supply before starting. Some regulators include a wrench and hex key, so check before buying extra tools. Refer to your RV manual for details about your specific system.
