This regulator has 13/16" openings for 1/2" gas pipes. 1/2" IN and 1/2" OUT Female Pipe Thread.

Heat or cold can change the resistance of the spring inside the regulator. How to find the correct pipe thread sizeWARNING: The NPT thread size is NOT referring to the size of the thread itself!The plumbing industry standard for the pipe sizes is NOT always as straightforward as measuring the pipe.Measuring the pipe will often mislead you into choosing the wrong pipe size.The "pipe thread size" is measured and based on the inside of the pipe. A lot of people measured the thread / the opening for the thread / outside diameter of the pipe, and thought that was the thread size. It was WRONG.The NPT thread is referring to the Interior Diameter of the pipe.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does the opening size matter if I use reducers?  3/4 thread down to 1/2 thread**
A: Why don't you just buy the correct size? Yes, you can use the reducer.

**Q: I need to reduce 13.5” to 6-9” range. Do you have a recommendation for that?**
A: This Product could be a good candidate for you. Using a digital manometer I recorded my feed pressure at 14.7"H2O and outlet pressure at 6.2"H2O.

**Q: What is the max btu hour input for this? my needs are for 125,000.**
A: Sorry - you many need to check the manufacturer's website for this.

Thanks

**Q: How do you adjust this to get 1/2 PSI gas out for low pressure grills?**
A: You can not get 0.5 psi outlet pressure from this regulator. This regulator is designed to have a maximum inlet pressure of 0.5 psi and will provide pressure less then its input depending on what spring the regulator is equipped with.
