Question:

I would like to put a permanent low pressure lp connection on the opposite side of my Tiffin Allegro than the propane tank. Is there a kit to do this? Thanks

There's too many variables to consider when rerouting propane so there isn't an all-in-one type of kit. Typically if you're routing permanent lines it's recommended to use a copper hard line instead of a hose so you would need a tee like # 37207-30135 to be able to connect the line. You would need a 1/4" male inverted flare fitting to whatever fitting you end up putting on the copper line.

Typically a 3/8" swivel flare fitting is used on copper lines so you could get a 1/4" male inverted flare fitting to 3/8" male flare fitting at your local hardware store. You would need to use a copper flare tool to flare out the end and prevent the 3/8" swivel fitting from coming off.

You can then run the line over to where you need it and connect to a low pressure regulator like # 37207-30335, which will also require an adapter like # MBS77FR to go from the line to the 1/4" FPT inlet. From there you would need to decide what type of connection point you want to determine what other adapters would be needed.

If you're not used to working with propane systems I highly recommend having a certified technician complete the installation for your safety.
