Recommendation For Propane Regulator And Propane Hose For 100 Gallon Propane Tank

Question:

I'm in a year round campground and having a 100 GALLON propane tank set in. Could you guide me on what type of regulator /hose would be required?

What you need will depend on what you have. For a regulator, I recommend the Camco Horizontal 2-Stage Regulator, Item # CAM59333, or the Camco Vertical 2-Stage Regulator, Item # CAM59313. If your 100 gallon tank is an ASME that is generally installed in a motorhome then you will need a horizontal regulator like Item # CAM59333. If the tank is not installed in a motorhome then you will likely need a vertical regulator like Item # CAM59313. Both regulators maintain a constant 11 inch w.c. gas pressure for your camper. Both have an inlet connector that is 1/4 inch NPT. The horizontal regulator, Item # CAM59333, includes a P.O.L. fitting that works with a motorhome if you need it.

When it comes to a propane hose, the P.O.L. fitting will not need a hose from the tank to the regulator. If you have a Type 1 fitting then you can use Item # 100833-15. For either regulator, you will need a hose like the MB Sturgis Propane Hose Assembly, Item # 100383-48-MBS. This hose connects to either 2-stage regulator, is 4 feet long, has a 1/2 inch female flare swivel connector, and a 3/8 inch male pipe thread connector.

If you need hoses with different fittings, let me know what you need and I will make a correct recommendation.
