Found manual online and it states a gas shutoff valve must be used. Is one included with the BBQ? All I have is a NG stub coming out of my back wall.

You have to purchase an NG gas shutoff from your nearest Lowes, Home Depot, etc. You will also need to purchase the Quick Disconnect coupling. I purchased all parts at Lowes and my grill is used every weekend.

A quick connect snap-on valve is included, but your stub is probably not compatible.

No. The gas shut off valve is typically installed by the gas company to the stub. You may be able to find a handyman who can do it. The hose attaches to that valve.

Yes, it has the shut-off valve included. I used it for a snowblower I have. the original plastic tank started leaking at the seam in the middle. I hope for the money this thing costs that it last longer than the original.

I have mine connected in Series in the following sequence. Gas Mains to house, to mains regulator, to various gas appliances including a plumbed in gas grill. The hard line then exits onto the deck where I next installed a stop valve and then the GASAV then via fittings and a flexible hose to my grill. However, this stopped working about a month after installation. It is permanently stuck at 15 mins.

The valve is not a problem. However, a lot of places are only set up to fill the gas grill tanks. My BJ's Wholesale Club doesn't fill anything larger. You should ask Costco if you are counting on using them. There are other places. I use a hardware/fireplace insert store and a tool rental store to fill mine.

Your propane tank should have a steel collar surrounding the shutoff valve on top, to protect it from damage. The burner assembly attaches to the steel collar. Loosen the hold-down nut on the burner assembly clamp until it slides down on the collar of the tank. Then tighten it firmly and connect hose.

NO.... Just shut off tank valve then remove hose from tank. This tee fitting goes inline by attaching to tank then attach hose. Turn tank on when finished and check for leaks with a soapy water mix. May have a plastic shield covering the hose coupling so it may need to be removed. I was able to replace plastic shield with a little modification. The tank hookup is not much different than you typical 20 or 30 pound propane tank.

Minimum size gas line is 3/4". The one I bought came with the shut off valves for the gas and water, but some don't. None of them come with the vent cap and special double wall 5" exhaust duck. It isn't required but you should consider a good drip pan since it does not come with one. It needs electricity. It has a 110V cord/plug, but you have to have an outlet to plug it into. It comes with the remote mounted controller, but it only has about 10' of cord. If you are mounting this in an attic and mounting the control panel down on the main floor you will most likely have to buy some more thermostat cord. It is readily available at any home improvement center and is cheap. Minimum size gas line is 3/4". The one I bought came with the shut off valves for the gas and water, but some don't.

Better to have it done by a plumber! I did it once several years ago with another grill, but the possibility of a dangerous situation involving natural gas is too great. Don't burn the place down!

The problem you may have is not with the fit, but with 2 gas regulators. Your 100 gal tank has a regulator at the shut off and the hose for the grill also has a regulator. When I tried to do it, I got low pressure on the grill. I was told it might be the double regulators, but I haven't worked on it since it turned cold outside.

Grill. Turn the grill off. Connect adapter to grill then to tank. Open the cylinder valves slowly wait at least 60 seconds before turning gas grill control to high then light. Never had a problem.

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!

You will need a shutoff if you want one, keep in mind this is an old fashioned sweat system. I installed Pex in my location, the sweat adapters where cheap but I needed an experienced plumber to install them (worked for beer). I thought about putting angled turn off valves in but backed off at the last minute. For the price a great deal for a quality system, also be forewarned you will need to plug that bottom port to the bathtub. I heard there is a plug in the box but I must of misplaced it was not fun finding a replacement.

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.

The barbecue coupling screws on to the outside of the tank valve.... BUT the Red Dragon coupling screws into the inside of the tank valve NOT the outside like the BBQ. I took a picture but can't add it to this response.

Did u open the valve? Check to see if there is gas flow by opening the valve BEFORE you insert it into the grill.

Yes, mine did, which is cool! I don't know why this is not mentioned in the product description. The lower capacity (7.5 GPM) one does not have the isolator valves. All you need to add is copper plumbing pipe to hook up, gas line and GFI outlet. You may need to buy a vent if it's going indoors. Mine is outdoors on side of house.

yes, it has a valve on the bottom side, you need butane which can be purchased in any hardware store. There should be instructions included on how to refill it, but basically you turn it upside down remove the black rubber base and press the canister against the valve, when full it will spill out a bit, that is the cue to stop, it is important not to light it immediately, let the air circulate for a couple of minutes, it´s just safer.
