Depending on the piping is on your propane system you can use a horizontal or vertical regular. Basically just what fits in the space most conveniently. So you could use the MB Sturgis Horizontal 2-Stage Propane Regulator - 11" Water Column Outlet Item # 108221 for a horizontal setup or the MB Sturgis Vertical 2-Stage Propane Regulator - 11" Water Column Outlet Item # 108220 for a vertical setup. Anytime you're installing a regulator you should always place it so the vent is facing downward.
