Will Furnace Pilot Light Stay Lit When Camco Changeover Regulator # CAM59005 Switches Tanks

Question:

If the auto regulator switches when the primary take is empty then my pilot light will go out. If im not at home at that time then it will be cold in the house, making the auto regulator pointless. Does it empty the tank completely before switching.

The Camco Automatic Changeover 2-Stage Propane Regulator # CAM59005 that you referenced switches tanks before the first one runs totally out. There would be a small amount of propane left in the first tank which allows pilot light to stay lit as the transfer takes place.
