Hooking grill to onboard propane

There are two (really 3) adapters.. Now I do not think Marshall Brass still makes 'em (At least last time I looked they were not in the MB online catalog) but they were called the "Extend-a-Flow" which came in two models one stright through and the other right angle, and the Extend-a-stay, All of these have a Round "Quick Connect" fitting, like you find on the top of a throw-away Propane bottle So any propane grill designed to use throw aways work with them. With an adapter many designed to work with luggable's like the 5 to 25 pounders will as well (Though the really big ones may not)

THe extend-a-stay is designed for Motor Homes like I have.. with this there is a 2nd hose included where you can hook up a luggable tank to feed the RV.. Have done that on occasion. Very handy .

The regulator is at the tank end of the hose.

I use a splitter on my 20lbs trailer tank to run a 20’ hose to my bbq. The splitter has the same screw type fitting as the bbq and allows me to run the line before the trailers’ regulator.

The other way is if your trailer has a quick connect port for a gas line. Remove the bbq regulator and add an adapter to use a hose into the quick connect port. A search on here or google will show how and what you need.

You can only use one regulator with an appliance. If you connect to the RV system anywhere after the RV's regulator, you would run directly to the grill with it's regulator removed. If you connect directly to a propane bottle, then a regulator is required.

thanks. I don't remember any extra hose with the grill. But now I know that is doable. Now I need to find out if I can connect to the Motor Home's propane.
