Can you use this with the external accessory gas hook up on a trailer?

The valve is designed for the little portable bottles like you would use for a camping stove, camping light or propane torch. I'm guessing you'd need a hose and adaptor at least and might have pressure or flow rate considerations.

sure it can. you need to purchase a hose with proper connectors. take it to your local gas company and they will fix you up

You can if you have the adapter to do so. You still need a propane hose with a regulator in it though

Sorry I can't answer your question. I installed it for my mother and it was a direct replacement. I believe she has a switch inside of trailer that she uses for LP or AC. Any switch or extra wiring was already done. I only connected gas line and 3 wires.

Yes. As long as you can run your gas line into a gas grill controller, it will work just fine.

I use it with my propane burner outside so I'm sure gas would be just fine. Just don't run it out of water! Lol

Yes you just wire it in with the provided harness but most likely you will have to run a wire back to the trailer hookup

Not directly and it really shouldn't be hooked directly because it would possibly melt the exterior and blow up. You would need a extension black iron pipe to get it out of the appliance chamber so that it doesn't get the heat. The connection needs to be outside the cooking zone. You will also need an adaptor to go from the pipe 1/2"npt (national pipe thread) to the 3/8" that is supplied. You should be able to get this at either a place that sells gas appliances or bring the parts to a good hardware store.

Yes. The first thing I did was to cannect to a 5gal propane tank and check it out. I used a connection with a regulator and it seems to work fine even with its' own internal regulator. I don't know if it is the proper way to hook it up, but that was just to test it. My normal hookup will be straight from the propane tank in our Coach.

I don't believe so. The round end on this unit goes into the round vehicle receptacle and allows a trailer flat end to plug into it. Sounds like you need the opposite or change the trailer to a flat four pin.

I don't see why not. I hooked it up to my gas connection that I had coming in my bathroom. The bathroom door is always open. I use it in the daytime, then I use an electric one at nighttime because I close my bedroom door (bathroom and bedroom next to each other) just to be on the safe side. Hope this is helpful.

I do not see why not. When the gas line is disconnected no gas remains in the lines. I am very satisfied with the reliability of this machine. There is only one drawback to this generator. It is a little more louder than most.

No, not if you disconnect the extension (12') hose that comes with the kit from the brass tee. The Tee has a check-valve in it to stop the flow of gas.

I would think so, as long as you have a gas value with a on/off switch. Most gas values don't require any power since it operates off millivolts generated via the thermal couple. The remote worksgreat with my direct vent. It acts as a remote switch than has the ability to turn on/off due to what temperature you select. Simple to hook up just follow the programing instructions per directions given.

You could, but it would take a little doing...you didn't really offer enough info to say for sure. You'd need to tap in to the fuel line just after the main fuel petcock. If I were to do what you are attempting, I'd add a 2nd petcock on a custom mount with a "Y" tube adapter after it, then tie the existing petcock outlet into the Y..otherwise you could inadvertently spill your RV fuel into the generator tank and overflow it, spilling your RV fuel.I wouldn't suggest using any kind of fuel pump with it either - I'd suggest you stay as it's designed and use good ol' gravity...so your RV fuel will need to be higher than the petcock on the generator.

I would say that " yes " i would thing you can connect the two male threaded end together with a double female threaded coupler ( BUT ) never trust quick connect plugs to not leak ( SO ) always shut the gas line off at the source when you are not cooking .
