I want to buy this pit and a 12' extra gas hose. My quuestion is; do I need a hose with or without a regulator?

Just unscrew the existing hose and regulator at the control knob, and add an extension hose between them.

Hi for natural gas the regulator is built in. 2014 models have about a 12" line out and include a shut off valve. You will need a gas line to the shut off valve. Thank you, Patio Splash

It comes with both the hose and regulator. All you do is furnish the tank and it's ready to go. Best BBQ I've cooked with in over 50 years!!!

You should be able to get a longer hose from most propane dealers and any fittings you might need. I got a long hose and adapters so i can use mine with my house propane tank.

Just attach the hose in the same way that anything else attaches to a propane tank (ie. a grill, heater, etc.). Nothing else is required.

Usually there will be a regulator on your natural gas meter on the side of your house or at your propane tank outside your home depending on which type of a gas you are using. So yes it does need a regulator , but if your house is running propane or natural gas it already has a regulator in place. I installed my eccotemp FVI-12-LP to a 20lb propane tank using a regulator from a propane shop rated for the water heater btu . Also you can't use those plastic handled hoses that you see on BBQ or rv tank connections because they contain a check valve that will cut the flow of gas to your heater when you fire it up. The check valve thinks there is a gas leak because of the high demand of the water heater, its a safety feature for bbqs. Hope that helps.

If you are going to install the heater in your house that has the large propane tank already running a water heater and furnace, and you are going to connect it to the existing LP piping, you don't need another regulator. You will however, want to make sure the existing piping is large enough to "carry" the additional load. If you are going to run the new heater separately, than yes, this regulator will run it. FIY, I'm an LP service tech.

I just bought this tank. It comes with the valve and does not require the square valve wrench - it has a built in handle to open and close. You do need the regulator. I bought this for my vacation home in Colorado. I found you need a prescription to get it filled with oxygen.

You will need regulators to use this torch. There is a kit available for small tanks. This is more expensive to use but practical for limited use. I The Little Torch with Regulators for Disposible TanksIf you decide to go to larger tanks you will need different regulators. I suggest going to a welding supply company as there are different configurations depending on what kind of gas you want to use. BTW I used these torches for 30 years before retiring. Best one available for fine work.

The hoses will connect to the shop tank regulators if you have small regulators. Large regulators requie adapter fittings.

There is a "Patio kit" that might be better served. Both kits come with 25 psi regulators. You will want a lot of 1/4" lines where as the "Garden kit" is built on a 1/2" trunk line. The Garden kit is very accommodating though and will serve your needs but you may need to purchase additional 1/4" line and emitters.

There is a regulator on the unit. I called up Atwood to ask if something addt'l was needed & they said no. My motor home has a regulator on its propane system as well.

No problem. Also pressure regulator should be before tank if you need one. Put ours on this summer and love it. Yes it works.

Yes. You need a hose. The directions that come with it will show you what to do and how to hook it up. It't really easy and you will love it.

I would think you would need a regulator depending on the pressure at the source. It is also a very small diameter hose, so you will have to use adapt it.

No regulator is required. A filter is recommended. Seems like cheap insurance to me. Best of luck.

Hi J, You will need a female connection for the gas valve on this fire pit. You will have to reference your patio heater to see what connection you will need there. Thanks!
