Recommended 2-Stage Propane Regulator for 100-lb Tank
Question:
Hi! I have a Martin 8,000BTU propane heater. It says I need a regulator with a minimum of 11WC and maximum of 13WC. Do you have a suggestion of what to use at the tank? We are using a 100lb tank.

Expert Reply:
I suggest a 2-stage propane regulator. The two following options will each work, providing the needed minimum of 11-inch water column pressure. I suggest selecting the one that will install so that its condensation vent is facing downward. The MB Sturgis Horizontal 2-Stage Propane Regulator, # 108221 or the MB Sturgis Vertical 2-Stage Propane Regulator, # 108220 for vertical installation.
