Hi MIke, I am not suggesting this is at all "legal" to use this in your jurisdiction, but I used a flexible rubber hose from a local company called Fairview Fittings. It is listed under propane line and brake lines. I ran it directly from the tank to the stove with no copper at all. I removed the stock fridge so had no need for it for that, but then used another one for my Propex. Here is a link to an online source for the product: *http://tinyurl.com/propanehose*, otherwise you can find it on the Fairview site. Barry
Mike South<msouth@GMAIL.COM> , 6/5/2014 6:28 PM: So, I have a new tank, with a two-stage regulator (I think that's what it's called). I had to shorten the copper lines. But we ran into a problem with one that stripped or something in the flaring tool and I had to cut another inch. I went and got an elbow and some other fittings from the hardware store. I'm having some doubts about getting this all to line up, etc. Is there any kind of flexible line I could safely use under there to connect the tank to the copper lines running in to the van? Thanks, mike |
