I added CAT heater by putting a black pipe fitting to flare 3/8" copper tubing. Tubing run unto interior compartment, where I put a gas rated ball valve with flare connection. Rubber hose to propane quick disconnects from there.
This is what I'm trying to figure out - what parts should I get. For now, only talking about above the floor part.
So there is a bare end of 3/8 OD copper pipe sticking out of the floor inside, in the "interior compartment" - under dinette bench. The heater is about 2ft away. What parts do I need to get from the bare copper pipe to 3/8" flare of the heater?
Rubber hose inside is not safe - technically, but still an option if nothing else will do, and it is easy. A piece of 3/8" copper sounds better for this purpose - more difficult, yes.
