Hi Liza, I'm not sure what you mean by "gas insert" however I can tell you that the 59333 is not designed to connect two propane tanks. It fits inline with the propane supply on a motor home. You may be looking for something like our Auto Changeover 2-stage Regulator (link below to 59005). This is used between two propane tanks. When one tank goes empty it will automatically changeover to the next tank. If this does not answer your question, please give us a call at 800-334-2004. Our customer service staff are very knowledgeable and can help you further. http://www.amazon.com/Camco-59005-Double-Stage-Auto-Changeover-Regulator/dp/B0024ECBCA/ref=sr_1_1?s=automotive&ie=UTF8&qid=1423233519&sr=1-1&keywords=camco+59005

The manual says to only use the recommended tanks and says that it's not safe to use others. That doesn't mean that you "can't" use another tank with it, but it probably means that it's inadvisable and likely invalidates the warranty. I have not tried to hook anything other than 1-lb. propane tank to it (Ace Hardware brand), so I can't say for sure what is possible. I can only say that I wouldn't try to do it because I'm pretty squeamish about possible leaks using hardware that's no recommended by the manufacturer.

As long as the connector(s) are the same - it should work no problem. I believe propane threading/connectors are universal, so you should be ok. But Im not an expert. The only other caveat is that when using this pit at its highest setting you may go thru the smaller tank quickly. Ive only used my pit for maybe 30 min - 45 min at a time (on my patio) and I switch the tank between this and my grill all the time - so I cannot give accurate info on how long a 5# tank would last at full flame - but I have only refilled my 20# tank twice since I bought this nearly 2 years ago. From a standpoint of quality, its awesome. This thing is a tank and has lasted great so far. As long as the connector(s) are the same - it should work no problem.

If you regulate the gen first and then put the adapter in for the heater it should be fine, fed the gen first, it uses the propane much faster that the heater, hope this helps...:)

I'm definitely not the expert here but I know this hose is for natural gas not propane. I believe the fittings are different and that this would not connect to a standard propane tank.

Would work much better if one was Oxygen the other Propane or other such gas. Just please follow the Smiths instructions carefully.

The pressures are different. The orifice size would need to be changed. Since natural gas operates at a lower pressure than propane, in theory you could drill out the nozzles to the correct size. I would consult the manufacturer first, because it is critical for the proper gas flow and above all, SAFETY.

Its made for the small BBQ propane tanks. So I don't don't know if you can use it with a bigger one. Sorr .

Yes it will, we have ours hooked up two propane, it came with the kit to convert it. I am really happy with mine.

I would say no. I use a small paint ball tank and when I get it filled it appears the fittings on the two tanks are different. To be 100% sure I would have to see a normal CO2 tank.

I believe it is in regards to the type on valve on to of your tank, all up to current spec. Valves will work just fine.Most older tanks will no longer be filled at local propane stations anyways.

With the correct connecting hoses, YES. This is a GREAT way to save on propane. 16oz bottles get expensive compared to bulk propane

The valve on this tank is identical to a 20 lb propane tank typically used with gas grills - right hand thread. I think the other end of your connector hose would need to connect to a "POL fitting with a left hand thread".

The hose will work for that except a propane and natural gas have different size venturis that the gas flows through so you need to also convert your venturi. I think it has something to do with the air to gas mixure being different between both fuels. So even though you use the hose will interchange, you will be disappointed with ability of the burner without changing the ventri also.

Yes, but you must buy a separate connector. I bought a Stansport Propane Appliance to Bulk Tank Hose Connector (5-Feet)-$14.23 from Amazon. You don't want the hose too long since a serious problem you might have is the gas connections not staying secure letting propane gas leak out.

With that tank you will need two of them. One on each side... I have a 55gallon tank and one works fine...

I use mine with a full size tank and have no problem. You need to make sure that you buy a hose that does not have a regulater since there is already one on the grill. With another added to that it would really not be able to give you the full amount of propane needed. I never have used mine with the small tanks but have them on hand for traveling. The hose I bought is a Weber although there is another brand that is about $5.00 cheaper that should work just as well. Hope this helps. Good luck and enjoy!
