How To Hook Up Water Heater to Tank with POL Fittings
Question:
Good day. I would like to connect a Rinnai propane tankless water heater to my propane tank which has a POL fitting. The supply line on the heater is 1/2. What hose/connectors you recommend?

If a regulator is needed you could use the Camco Horizontal 2-Stage Propane Regulator part # CAM59333 and attach this directly to the tank. The Propane Hose part # 37207-31485 could then be used to attach the regulator to the water heater. The hose is 6' long and has a 1/2" flare fittings on the other end. If you need NPT you'll have to source an adapter locally but most hardware stores will have one.
I have attached our other hose length options below.
