    Hey this is great, I've been having so much trouble trying to find a video explaining all the parts I need. I was wondering if you could answer my question- I have a stove/range that runs on propane as well as a stackable dryer that heats with propane. I was looking for the appropriate regulator to fit to my propane tank, would this regulator set-up work for both types of appliances?

    • @3daystodie
      @3daystodie Před 5 měsíci

      Missing is his hard line (which is steel) which usually comes through the wall and usually has a sediment trap for big propane cans and the inside shut-off knob so you can shut off the gas and clean behind the stove the regulator is supposed to be hooked to the hard line outside the house with a piece of copper tubing to the regulator this regulator they are using is to small along with the can a 100lb or a 200-250 lb can is advised for keeping pressure constant so all burner can be used not just one like shown he says hack and that’s what he did hack it!

    Coupler is SOOOOO important. You cannot just connect a propane tank to it without the adapter or you can burn the stove up and likely the house down in an uncontrolled fire or close to it. One the adapter is on - you're good to go. Adapter is usually about $6 to $25 depending on where you buy. Works for Wolf commercial stoves too.

    You might want to check with industry standards & safety codes. There are a few things wrong here. You should use a solid black iron through the wall or shield the flexible line from friction & abrasion. The line outside should have a protective covering. The entire line should be grounded.

      You're most likely correct. And if propane companies would actually sell small amounts of propane to us or contractors did not charge thousands and thousands of dollars to do simple jobs, we wouldn't be fumbling through these DIY projects and making mistakes like this. Literally no one in the propane industry will do business with homeowners who only want lp for 1 appliance. No one.

      You can use the yellow Flex connector you just can't put it through a wall. the yellow Flex connector is designed to go from the gas ball valve to the Appliance. it's not made to run for a long distance example connecting them together will not pass code. that's strictly from the gas ball valve to the Appliance

    You don't list the parts (adapters) you used, which is probably the most important part of the equation. I recently did the standard switch from NG to LP that most gas ranges are set to accommodate (changing out orifices and switching the appliance regulator from Natural Gas to Propane), but no one at Home Depot, Lowe's, Ace, etc. seems to be able to tell me how to get from the Propane Tank to the existing Natural Gas hose that attaches to the cook top range. I was thinking this would be the easiest part, but it seems to be the step causing the most problems. It's just this: what goes between the Propane Tank regulator and the standard yellow hose flare fitting? In the video it looks like you found a single, compact adapter, but I can't find that piece for the life of me!

    • @Reviewoutlaw

      +Review Outlaw Thanks for the response! Ace, Home Depot, Lowe's... they all told me this was the weirdest thing they'd ever heard of and I'd need to go to a specialty Propane supplier. Idiots. It's very simple. The main component (the adapter I needed the name of) is actually a 3/8" FP (flare pipe) to 1/2" MIP (what's on the stove) adapter. Every grill sold these days has a regulator that screws to the tank, and a hose that screws into the grill (you can buy this regulator/hose combo separately at all the big box stores). The end of that hose has a 3/8" FP fitting. Thus, with the adapter you can screw the hose directly into your stove (connecting it directly to a 20# tank). A couple people have asked, so I'll mention this... the reason you want to use a regulator on the tank in ADDITION to the regulator on your stove is that the stove regulator is just making sure a consistent flow of fuel is entering your stove (the appropriate amount of either NG or LP, depending upon which way the regulator is set up). The regulator on your tank is changing the pressure from High Pressure (out of the tank) to a lower pressure, thus you need BOTH regulators. Hope this helps others, and thanks again for your video!

      That part is incorrect that yellow Flex connector is not designed to penetrate through a wall expecially exterior walls that should have been hard pipe. so hard time going through the wall into the house then you will need to install a gas valve before hooking up to your Appliance. ITS technically always supposed to be pipe, gas valve, then the regulator. That yellow Flex connector is intended only to go from the gas valve on off to the Appliance. it's not intended to be ran as gas line directly this video is shown in correct way hooking this Appliance please do not follow this procedure thank you

      Yes for LP you should have a red regulator at the propane tank and that regulator well regulated to 10 psi. A man before your Appliance you will have to have a gas ball valve and also another regulator commonly used maxitrol to regulate it to11 inches water column. If you have too much pressure going to your Appliance you will blow the gas valve so make sure your regulated to what the appliance calls for which 4 LP is usually 11 inches water column.

    • @richardlong3532
      @richardlong3532 Před 7 lety +1

      The little regulator that's in the appliance is definitely not enough to handle the pressure coming from the tank that's why it's important that you regulate outside of the tank to knock it down to 10 psi Post-Standard LP regulators are red or they have dual regulators which is 2 and 1 to save space . it is very important to remember to regulate properly because if you don't your Appliance gas valve will blow and won't be no good. Most LP appliances call for 11-14 inch water column on the inlet I believe natural gas is 8 inch water column

    • @8Jory
      @8Jory Před 8 lety +3

      He used a single stage grill regulator which does obviously work but your insurance company won't like it. The purpose of a two stage regulator is for it to have a built in fail safe in the event the regulator fails "open" which would expose your propane appliance to tank pressure which can be up to 140 psi instead of the much lower pressure it is designed to use. The potential is there for the appliance to fail, or even the delivery hose because it was never meant for that level of pressure.

Seems you have some good info and I'd really like to hear your thoughts on soft copper lines going into my log cabin to hook up to a propane log FP. Seems most indoor propane "fireplaces" are requiring 100LB tanks but I can no longer huff that size tank.
      Most say to use a blue flame wall heater which lets you use smaller (40, 30 & even 20LB ) tanks. But I really want a propane log fireplace. So, along with whatever you'd be nice enough to tell me about what parts are safest & best to use to hook up a small LP Tank; I'm wondering if you'd please tell me what's needed to allow me to use small tanks for a "Fireplace?
      Most folks say you have to have the pressure of a 100LB tank which you don't get w/a smaller tank. Can a regulator give you the pressure of a 100LB tank? Or is there something else that'll fix it to be dependable & safe? Would really appreciate any help in this matter. Thx!

    • @michaelcollins1899
      @michaelcollins1899 Před 3 lety +2

      @@PANDAMANImpressions depending on state you live, soft copper may or may not be legal and depend on how long in feet the run is. Here where I live. Soft copper is permitted to run 10 ft and no more!!! So as long as tank is outside the wall, and within 10 ft of the appliance, you can run it. Soft copper is very fine product stood test of time over 40 yrs now. Black iron is also used widespread as a longer run that is buried. Most houses here use soft copper to the wall and then convert to the newer style yellow flex line from there to appliance. As far as volume, pressure and regulator, gas is gas. You can absolutely run a fireplace on a 20 lb bbq tank!!!!! My neighbor did it for the 1st year he built his new house!!! The propane company had issues with getting tank and truck delivery due to his lay of land and various trees in the way also wet winter time so he just hooked a small tank and it ran just fine. But be aware, you will be changing tanks more often...duh....smaller tank means it will run out more often. Go figure lol. Other than that, theres no difference. Now to the regulator, the fireplace you buy will have the regulator either with it in the packaging or will have a regulator size suggestion listed in the manual. You can either buy from them or generic regulator for cheaper as long as it falls within scope of the factory recommendation. Good luck.
