The bag is marked as the regulator and the 2 end connectors are included. So was the advertised item. I paid $200+ for just a nut. It was send back and I am trying to get my money back

Like some people already reviewed, the item only comes with *one* tail piece kit that has a replacement gasket or rubber washer that is part of a "tailpiece" union connection kit , Part number 1-TPKXL.So if you are like me, wanting to simply replace an existing older busted Model 70, you can use the same brass connectors but, unfortunately you're limited in only replacing one gasket with a new one. Hopefully your old gaskets are still good, if not you're out of luck! :(After replacement, it took me several tries in tightening the lower nut from the mains water supply till a small leak i encountered disappeared. I think this was due to the new rubber washer that needs to be properly seated.I really would like to know the logic of only giving you one FNTP connection kit? :(

My plumber told me it would be $300 if he did it and likely less then $100 if I did it.Super simple process. $85 later, I have my pressure down from 105psi to 70psi and everything is working fine. Took about 15 minutes to replace the existing. How that equates to $300 plumber bill just goes to tell you how many people get taken advantage of my plumbers.

We did not know that our 21 year-old water pressure reducer valve failed until the Culligan guy checked it out. The high pressure, 110 psi, had caused the last two water softeners to rupture and flood our garage. The new unit arrived quickly and was easily installed by my hubby and we saved $200 by dyi.

I was trying to get the exact replacement for the old one and this is the new version of it. And it fits well, installing it took less than 5 minutes. Out of the box, the pressure is set around 50 psi, which will work for most homes. A side note, it's a good idea to check the water pressure annually just like your annual checkup. You don't want your water pressure being too high like blood pressure. If it does, it could damage your water heater, cause leaks etc. And if after adjusting this valve, the pressure doesn't change, it's time for a new valve.

This is definitely the model you want for typical household use. Much better than the Wilkins NR3XL.I've been running a 1" Wilkins NR3XL (their most basic model) pressure reducing valve on my residential water main line for about 4 years. I was always frustrated by the pressure dropoff with the most basic flow demands. To throw out some numbers, my incoming pressure is around 100 PSI, and I set the outgoing pressure to 60 PSI. If I turned on the kitchen sink faucet, I got a pressure drop of 20 PSI (to 40PSI). With a second demand, such as a toilet flush, the pressure dropped by over 30PSI (to about 30 PSI). I commonly had a working PSI of about 25 to 40 PSI under typical load.I did some research and read that this model has much better flow capacity (i.e. less pressure dropoff under demand). I installed it and took new pressure measurements under load. Running the kitchen sink faucet now produces a dropoff of 3 PSI. Add flushing a toilet and running the bathroom sink and the total dropoff is still under 10 PSI. I now rarely see the working pressure go under 50 PSI. The pressure is much less variable now.
