Recommended 2-Stage Propane Regulator for Water Heater

Question

Question:

I have a rinnai water heater that is 120000 btu and I have a 10 gallon propane tank I am using a setup with a regulator for a grill and it works when it’s warm but when it’s cold it has issues. What setup should I use. It has to use one of those black plastic quick screw on things that grill regulators have to connect to the propane tank. Thanks!
