Maxitrol RV48L Natural Gas Pressure Regulator, 1/2" FPT Thread, 13/16" In and Out Opening, 1/2 PSIG In, 3"-6" WC Out

My built in bbq was not working like it should. So glad I found this regulator. It fixed my problem and saved me a ton of money. I would have had to pay someone to come fix it $$ or worse buy a new bbq $$$$.

It seems to be a high quality regulator, all connections were easy to make. After using my grill again after replacing my old regulator with this one, I found that the grill was not getting hot enough even on the high setting. I removed the screw cap and adjusted the gas flow using a screwdriver, and then did it a second time to get the flames to the right heat level. Now the grill is back to normal heat range.

Our Saber natural gas grill would not ignite the burners the next day after a cold night. After troubleshooting typical failure points, i.e. starter battery, etc., and researching tips on the internet, I decided the problem appeared to be the regulator. The grill is about 3 years old and has performed well. I found this regulator on Amazon, ordered it, and it was delivered as expected. I removed the old regulator, cleaned all of the connector threads and wrapped them in yellow pipe tape. It was easy to install the new regulator and worked perfectly the first time I started the grill! An easy DIY project.

My 2008 natural gas Weber Summit grill had never gotten extremely hot from the day I purchased it and recently could not get above 300° . Called Weber and sent some pictures and then never heard back from them. I decided to take matters into my own hands by buying both a new natural gas regulator and hose from Amazon. Luckily, the brand of this item was exactly the same as the original but the fitting sizes were a little different from the original. I was able to adapt the new regulator with parts from Home Depot and then attached the new gas line. The grill got much hotter right away. I did decide to adjust the regulator a little (yes, mine was adjustable) and turning clockwise did seem to increase the pressure and the grill got a little hotter. I was able to get to about 525°, which seems to be the norm for both natural gas and propane grills. There are no instructions included with this (so 4 out of 5 stars) so I had to deduce from the schematic that I found online what direction to turn the adjustment screw on this regulator to increase pressure. I guessed right luckily (clockwise to increase pressure)... It is hard to say what exactly what fixed the problem but by replacing both the regulator and the hose, I got my Weber working great!

Our new house has a built in BBQ that was not working, after cleaning it, it was still not working correctly. I looked at the old regulator, there was no way to reset it so I decided to replace it, problem solved

Good product

This is not as the description says. It is 3/4" threaded in and out. You'll need 3/4" to 1/2" reducer if you're working with 1/2" black pipe. Secondly, the product description says 3"-6" WC out, which is typical for natural gas, which is also in the description. The sticker on the regulator I received says 'Po 5" - 12"'. Bottom line, this regulator is for propane, not natural gas.

From what I can tell, this works fine for my purposes. I had two other (incorrectly sized) regulators leading to my countertop cooktop, which obviously didn't have the correct flow specs. I installed this one, based on the cooktop's specs, and the burn rate/size seem perfect. I did NOT set a gauge on the end of this, so I can't confirm it's "accuracy"
