100 PSI house pressure is too high and 50 PSI is a tad too low.

Good house pressure is around 65 PSI give or take 5 or so PSI.


Make sure you have fittings to hook up the pressure gauge to a hose bibb and that the gauge reads 0 - 100 PSI. A lower range will not work and a higher range could be too hard to read the pressure.
