The rebirth of the Canyon State RR

[ezdays]

In town the city water is back pumped to tanks up on the mountain, then gravity fed to town. The pressure in some of the lower lying areas is so high it can blow garden hoses, hot water heaters and what have you so those folks have to install a reducer valve between the city pipe and their house. One friend of mine says the pressure at the valve at his house is 125 psi!

Yeah, we had that problem when we lived in Wickenburg, they installed a pressure reducer valve to keep it around 40psi, and we lived at the top of a hill. I wonder what it was like in other parts of town that had elevation that were much lower.
