Re: Secondary Regulator (monier)

The primary regulator (60 psi zone) is working fine, but our secondary regulator (the one with the yellow ring) does not. It appears that air continues to leak out of the secondary regulator. The system will never fill up higher than what the secondary regulator is set at. This is the same set up as we have used before and it has worked before, but for some reason, it is no working at all. We have no idea why... Any suggestions?

Thanks.
Sound like you may have in installed backwards. Check and make sure.
