I will second the use of a water regulator. I bought mine from a hardware store. It is a standard residential regulator capable of flowing more than 6 GPM and can be adjusted to the pressure you want. It has a secondary advantage of being rebuild able as well. It didn't take much to set it up with hose style fittings. To set the pressure I use a regular water pressure gauge I bought at the hardware store that already had a hose fitting on it.

Every place we set up, I check the pressure first and if it is over 50 PSI I use the regulator on the hose leading to the rig. We have been at more than a couple places where the pressure was over 100 PSI.
