OK, now I have some more information. I did the manometer test this morning. With just the fridge running, I have 10-5/8" WC. With 3 burners on the stove running wide open also, I have 9-3/4" WC.
I know that is below 11" spec. Normally, when the fridge is cooling on gas, it is the only thing running. Is 10-5/8" low enough to cause a drop in performance? I would think that 9-3/4" is, but we rarely have that kind of load running.
What say ye? Do I need to consider another regulator? If so, that's a shame, because I just bought my Camco 2-stage auto changeover regulator new last year! From what I've read, it is not adjustable. Isn't the Marshall Excelsior adjustable? I'm seeing a couple of different ones on Amazon, and I don't know which one is the best, or is adjustable.
