Selecting Pigtail Hose for Maximum Flow Capacity
Question:
I have a regulator part# 37207-31525 thats rated to 262,500 BTU. At the absolute most everything running in the trailer plus an extra griddle outside, Im pulling 145K BTUs so I have plenty of extra capacity with the regulator. Should I get the dark green pigtails 450K BTU throughput or the light green pigtails 200K BTU throughput? I have a feeling either would work because Im under the load for each. Im inclined to get the dark green that way I could take full advantage of the regulators throughput even though I dont need it!, but I wanted your opinion. I would need two 12inch pigtails and would appreciate your thoughts on options and part numbers very much.

I agree that you would be fine with either the MB Sturgis, # 100473-15-MBS or the, # 100575-12 based on your stated usage. I suggest selecting the maximum flow capacity of the # 100575-12-MBS.
