I reached out to one of main suppliers, MB Sturgis and they only offer a regulator with the changeover like the Item # 888001-MBS. You can check to determine if this regulator rated for 500,000BTU's with 11" water column pressure will be enough to replace your current regulator. Otherwise you would need to use a device like the MB Sturgis Sturgi-Stay T-Fitting w/ Hose # 103538-MBS to connect both tanks in line and be able to manually switch on and off each tank.
