2010 Surveyor 302 RL

We recently purchased a 2010 Surveyor 302 RL and after 3 weekend outings we're hooked ! We only have encountered a couple of minor problems. Our water pressure is very low. I'm using a 45 psi pressure regulator, and an Camco inline filter. The 2010 brochure that was in the manuals says all Surveyors features built in water filter. Is it likely that I'm double filtering the fresh water, and thats the reason for my low pressure.
What is the recommended pressure for TT Water systems?
Where would the installed filter be located?

I would check the built in filter, it probably needs to be changed or cleaned. They hide these things sometimes. It's going to be under a sink or in a cabinet, maybe behind a blank panel (mine was). Check close to where your water pump is located. Under/close to the bathroom sink is a common location.

Not all Surveyors have water filters. I saw that in the brochure too, but not true. I'm on my second one (2010 & 2013) and neither had water filter.

Mines a 2013 SP260 and if its got a filter it is well hidden. I have removed about every panel I can and haven't seen one.

Off the top of my head I seem to remember 50 psi. I could, and most likely, be wrong.

Bucks right. 40-50 psi is normal. I live off my fresh water tank so I have my pump set at 40, but city water I would go 50.

Ok I use a pressure reducer preset to 45 so I should be ok, right? My only real problem is the shower. Its barely enought to get ya wet real good. It has a stock shower head that came with the camper, thinking of trying a aftermarket head. Has anyone used the Oxygenics RV shower head?

If you did a search you would find any number of Oxygenics threads. Save yourself the time. It's one of the few "hands down" it's "more than worth it" mods. Probably 1 in 50 is marginally happy with it while the other 49 think it's "magic".

Thanks Yarome still learning the fourm, as well as being new to TTs.
Guess I should do a search to be sure no one has broached a subject, before I ask for advise. Thanks again!

Installed a Oxygenics shower spa and wife and I love it ! After many searches online I found it for $27 + $4.95 shipping at RV COUNTRY. They have an app., look it up on google play.
