Hi,
I am getting ready to take our new Pop-up out for the first long trip of the
year. Two things I want to make sure and get before I leave are: the thing
that controls the pressure of the water, and the adapter for the power plug
that will allow me to run the AC without burning down the camper. If anyone
can give me some advice it would be appreciated. THANKS in advance!

Should be able to get both at any RV dealer and most Wal-Marts. The water
pressure regulator is usually 40-50 lbs. (rating). If you can find one, go
down to 20 or 25 lbs. I can't see needing all that pressure and it keeps the
strain off the system. Just a thought. Happy Camping, Turn Key

FYI...typical water pumps will have the water pressure at 45 psi. I think
CPVC piping in RV's/trailers can handle 120 psi. :)

I bought those at Wal-Mart. You may also want to get leveling blocks (Lynx),
wheel chocks, an extension cord that has the same fittings as the cord on the
camper, rubbery shelf liner for the drawers helps to keep things from moving
around while towing, and drinking water hose (usually white plastic). I bought
all of these things at Wal-Mart (also bought some hose at Target - my store of
choice). A small torpedo level comes in handy for leveling the camper at the
camp-site. You may also want to get a five gallon pail to catch your Gray water
(from sink), it is also handy for holding small items while towing.

Have a great time on your first long trip!
