water pressure gauge?
« on: February 20, 2016, 12:38:18 pm »


Want to test the water pressure in taps and hose pipes I use.  I stuck this in one and don't think they fit.  Is this the wrong device?  What am I doing wrong?

Is that hozelock an end stop fitting or just a connector. Has it got a red or a grey line round the base?
It's a game of three halves!

Just a normal hose connector.  How do I connect the water gauge meter to a hose?  Think it's smaller in size.

Nah seriously, I don't know what I am doing.  Where do I get the right gauge?  Is mine for and RO with smaller hose?

Thanks dude.  The one I have also goes out the other side.  Is this any good for measuring a tap's pressure?   If not anyone recommend one.
