Red Propane Regulator - Why?
OK folks. I need someone to enlighten me on why the red high pressure propane regulator on my "curb-side" tank is required. I have a 3 - 20# bottle system, 2 bottles on road side and one on curb side...

I didn't see anyone post the purpose of a red (1st/single stage) regulator, though some hinted at the workings.
No I've had a generator in all my 5ers and they run off regulated gas downstream of the changeover regulator. The red regulator is on the LP tank distal from the automatic changeover regulator. Gas downstream of the red regulator goes directly into the changeover regulator.
