Replacing a Winntech 6020 Propane Regulator

Question:

I recieving a letter in reference to the recall for this item. I have searched the internet for a replacement and none are in stock. We will be on the road traveling next month and I need to know our propane regulator will work, and safely. Is there a replacement solution in stock, even if it is a single supply regulator? I have no problem switching bottles manually if needed.

There are actually several options available to replace your Winntec 6020. A lot of propane regulators carry similar specs and are pretty comparable when it comes to quality. The Winntec 6020 regulator that you referenced is a low pressure regulator. My suggestion is to replace with the Compact Low Pressure 2-Stage Automatic Changeover RV LP Gas Regulator, # 37207-31525 that is rated for 262,500 Btu.

But with the need to get something as soon as possible and your willingness to switch bottles if needed rather than using an automatic changeover, you may want to order the MB Sturgis Vertical 2-Stage Propane Regulator, # 108220. You will most likely need the Camco Propane Fitting - 1/4" Male NPT x 1/4" Female Inverted Flare, # CAM59953.
