Propane Gas Fitting

These guys seem to have a great selection and may have the adapter you need.
Give them a call or drop them an email!

Post a link to the fitting or hose they recommend.

Isn't that going to add a LOT of weight (tank & propane)?

I think they want a setup like extend-a-stay.

There are 3 possible ways of doing it.

1) Get an extend-a-stay kit. This is how I would do it myself. A Tee goes between your 20lb and hose and you should be able to get the right hose to connect a 100lb to it.

2) get an extension hose to go from the 100lb to where the 20lb would connect.

3) see if you can find a longer pigtail to go from the regulator to the 100lb. They must make various lengths.
