Universal regulator

Our gas hoses and pressure regulators comply with the highest safety level and European standards and regulations. There are no strict requirements for replacing your gas hose, but we recommend to replace your gas hose every 5 years. Unless the expiration date on the hose dictates an earlier replacement date. Also the shelf life depends on what kind of environment the gas hose and pressure regulator are used in. If the gas hose comes into frequent contact with, for example the sun or seawater, it will not last as long. We recommend to check the hose regularly. In case of cracks, wear or porosity, the hose must be replaced immediately.

Please note: regulations may vary per country.

A gas pressure regulator (together with a gas hose) is the connection between a gas bottle and, for example, a gas barbecue. The gas pressure regulator ensures that the gas pressure coming out of the gas bottle is reduced. This way you can safely connect a gas barbecue or stove to it. Which gas pressure regulator you need depends on the type of gas supply you choose. You can read more about this topic in the blogs below.

No, the gas hose and pressure regulator are not included by default. The reason for this is that there are different ways to connect your BBQ or stove to a gas supply, which means different types of regulators may be required.

The type of regulator you’ll need depends on the gas source you choose, for example:

• A Dual or Quad Power Pak – to run your appliance on lightweight gas cartridges
• A refillable gas cylinder – various brands, often requiring their own type of regulator
• A single gas cartridge – with the matching regulator

This flexibility allows you to choose the connection that best fits your setup.
