Backgroud Info: I've completely gutted a single family house and turning it into a duplex. One apartment on ground floor & one apartment on 2nd floor. I want to split the water so each apartment has their own water meter. I am using pex throughout the entire house with the viega manabloc system.

Question #1) When i split the water line comming into the house in the basement, should i intall a shut off before each meter?

Question #2) Should I install one (1) pressure regulator and pressure gauge before the meters, or install a pressure regulator and pressure gauge after each meter?

Any help is appreciated.
