Question:

1 What is the difference between Camco 59003 and 59005? 2 How does the reliability of the Camco automatic change over regulator compare to their competitors. From what I have been reading on the reviews the automatic change over regulator is not very reliable except possibly for Camcos. Your comment?

I was not able to find a CAMCO part 59003 on our site or on CAMCO's but we do offer their # CAM59333 Horizontal 2-Stage Propane Regulator. Both this and the # CAM59005 that you referenced are rated for 160,000 Btu/Hr. Part # CAM59005 allows for automatic changeover from the empty tank to the full backup tank; part # CAM59333 is a 2-stage regulator that provides for consistent 11" w.c. output pressure.

I do not know what other brands you are comparing so I suggest you refer to the customer ratings for the CAM59005 which are uniformly high, with a 4.8 out of 5.0 overall rating from customers that use it.
