With the R Pod having a regulator and my gas grill having a regulator I do not have much pressure. That is my problem. I need only one inline regulator. I was seeing if there was a simple way to by pass the R Pod regulator. I need high pressure to the grill regulator or if using the R Pod regulator I do not need the gas grill regulator.


Yes, this will remove the regulator from the grill. Then you can hook into the Pods low pressure system, only one regulator inline.

Thanks. For whatever reason I never think of searching YouTube.

I checked on YouTube, numerous videos depending upon type of grill, etc.

Yes - Kymooses has a very good You Tube video on the process with parts required.

The quick connect on a 2017 R Pod is run through the regulator for the Pod. With a gas grill you typically have a regulator on the hose for the grill. Can the regulator on the Pod be bypassed that goes to the quick connection or is this too much work. Not to the Pod. Two regulators does not work.
