What Size Propane Hose Do I Need to Use
Question:
I have a 2008 37foot WW 5th wheel toy hauler. My current hose that supplies the rigid piping from the regulator has two different ends. One end is a 3/8inch flare female and a much larger at least 1/2 on the end connecting to the gas pipe. The hose is difficult to find and I wanted to reduce the larger fitting size with a reducer so I can buy a two ended 3/8inch female flare hose. Is the diameter of this hose sufficient to feed my trailer?

Expert Reply:
The diameter of propane hose you need is going to depend on two factors which is the length of the hose and btu rating of the appliance. I have attached a chart for you which will allow you to determine if the 1/4" diameter hose on the Camco Propane Hose Assembly part # CAM59913 will be sufficient for you needs.
