Do you need a regulator on the propane tank? My manual's pic's show a "connect valve" on the hose that's not there on mine.

All propane tanks should have a regulator on the hose just like hooking up to a gas grill--

No. It's regulated at the generator. Just attached the hose connection to any portable propane tank.

The generator comes with a connecting hose & regulator, similar to that used on propane gas grills. I don't know what connector is on 100# LP tanks, but the hose provided with this generator expects the same type of fitting found on 20# and 30# tanks... (I am using a 30# tank with the generator, as I have 2 spare 30# on the RV (~100# of propane, in easy to move cylinders...) My understanding is the 100# tanks are not required to have the newer style TYPE 1 OPD valve found on the 20# tanks used for BBQ's. Your 100# tank will liekly be POL or TYPE 1. If its POL (threads on the inside of the tank outlet, as oppiosed to threads on the OUTSIDE (TYPE 1) You need a converter like http://www.amazon.com/GrillPro-11051-Universal-Propane-Adaptor/dp/B0029T5U0A/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1421791690&sr=8-3&keywords=100+pound+propane+tank

You will need an adapter such as the CAMCO 59923 propane Acme nut to attach this to a standard propane tank. The male end of the hose should attach directly into your regulator

This hose is designed to use the quick-connect low pressure piping outlet past the propane tank connections. You may need to go to a RV shop and piece together some kind of adapters for your need.

You will need to go to a propane dealer and get an adapter. Any plumbing supply should help you also. I had to buy a couple of adapters.

I installed it myself and had the propane people connect it to the tank. I also had the propane people add the pressure reducer. I dug the trench for the propane line to the tank myself. The fire inspector OKed the job.

You'll need to get an ACME fitting for the hose to go directly to the propane tank. the side that goes to the RV regulator will work if the threads are the same.

Yes it is!!! In order to connect to the low pressure quick connect fitting on some RVs you have to do the following: Obtain the Camco 59903 nipple, (1/4" NPT x Full Flow Male), Camco 57282 10 Ft. propane quick connect hose and a 90 degree brass fitting (1/8 NPT male threads x 1/4 NPT female threads). You can get the 90 degree fitting at the hardware store or auto parts store usually. Next you will have to remove the brass portion of the regulator assembly that came with the grill. It is the section that actually attaches to the grill. You should see where the brass part screws on the silver pipe that eventually loops around to the regulator itself. It is a bear to get loose because they use some kind of thread adhesive between the brass and the silver pipe. Once you get it off, attach the brass fitting to the 90 degree fitting, the 90 to the Camco nipple all using thread sealant tape and then connect your hose to your new fitting assembly and then your RV. Worked fine for me and had less than forty bucks in making it all work. Just in case someone doesn't understand why all this is has to be done, it is because you must remove the regulator since the RV propane is already regulated at the tanks and Coleman uses their own special fitting on the rear of the grill that no one seems to make an adapter for.

My heater is hooked up to propane but the installer should have checked for leaks at the time it was hooked up. Surely they used the correct connector piece for ng. This model can use either one but has to be connected up properly with the correct connector piece. I would call them back. If you did not have a professional hook it up, you need to get one there ASAP to be sure you are safe. I have purchased 3 of the ProCom Vent-Free heaters over the years for different locations in the house and never had a problem but they were installed by professionals because safety is always #1 for my family and myself. My advise is to contact your professional installer to be sure you are safe. My heater is hooked up to propane but the installer should have checked for leaks at the time it was hooked up.

My internal tank was3/4 full. On my MH the propane tank has it's own shut-off valve. I closed this valve then installed the tee between the tank and the regulator per the instructions. When I am using the external tank, the internal tank valve is closed.

Is it possible that you have a regulator on the tank and at the grill? If so remove one. Never alter gas fittings, they are made that way for a reason.

I took the propane bits off before I even assembled the grill and connected it to my house's natural gas line. Works perfectly. They want you to buy a "conversion kit" which tells you to remove the bits and connect a hose (which you can get at home depot for a few bucks). YouTube it.

This will item not connect directly to the tank, it has no automatic shut-off so if you leave the tank valve open and disconnect the fitting propane will flow out at full pressure if unregulated. You should use a female quick connect fitting attached to the regulator, then use this fitting attached to your hose. The hose can be connected directly to the grill. Or connect the hose to the regulator, the female QC fitting to the hose, and then the male QC fitting to the grill. Most hoses and fitting are designed only for low-pressure, regulated supplies, so a regulator must be connected directly to the tank. Hope this helps!

No you have to provide your own tank and regulator, the hose is with the cooktop to connect to the bottle.

what kind of regulator did you get? Same store has one listed here called "XtremepowerUS 20PSI High Pressure 4Feet Propane Regulator W/ Hose". Will that work?
1257693
No problem. Also pressure regulator should be before tank if you need one. Put ours on this summer and love it. Yes it works.

I am using propane with mine. That is the type of regulator that came with mine.
