Recommended Replacement For A KLI 9000 RV Propane Regulator

Updated 09/07/2026 | Published 12/20/2021

Question:

I am reading your responses to the subject question. However, my configuration may be a bit different, but Im not sure. My failed KLI 9000, located on the passenger side of my 2014 Heartland Landmark feeds the dual, auto switchover regulator on the drivers side. Thus, when the passenger side 40# propane tank is online, it will provide propane for the stove, reefer, hot water heater, and furnace. I note the replacement regulator recommended is the CAM59013. The KLI 9000 is rated at 30 psi on the downstream side, but I cannot find a BTU rating to make sure it will provide sufficient flow. Can you help me make sure the CAM59013 will indeed be sufficient? Thank you!

I was unable to find the BTU rating for your KLI 9000 regulator but can assure you that the Camco Single Stage Propane Regulator # CAM59013 with a BTU rating of 200,000 is likely going to be far more than you'll need for your stove, refrigerator, water heater, and furnace. This regulator has our highest single stage regulator BTU rating.

Hi Kevin. I have a similar setup to the one you answered above. It looks like the KLI 9000 regulator on mine has failed also. With a freshly filled tank on the opposite side from the changeover regulator, it shows red if I select that side. My question is this: The tank on the side with the changeover is plumbed directly into the changeover switch with no additional regulator in between. Why does the tank from the opposite side of the coach need a regulator?

@TomA The tanks always need to go through a regulator unless you're hooking up something like a grill or fire pit that has a built in regulator. Would you be able to reply to the email with some pictures so I can get a good look at what your set up is?

Why does the CAMCO 59013 say not for use in two-stage regulation on recreational vehicles? I would be using it same as the previous question - on the passenger side opposite the 2-stage changeover regulator.

@GarthO You typically can't run two regulators off the same propane supply. You'll get a significantly reduced propane flow coming out of the 2nd one. The Camco Single Stage Propane Regulator item # CAM59013 is rated for for 200,000 Btu/hr and was being used to replace the KLI 9000 in that question so expect to see a drop in pressure.
