I may need to run an entirely new copper propane line. I am going to contact Airstream and see if PEX was factory installed for propane on 2005 Safari's.jc |
PEX is for water only. Propane should be copper or in some cases black iron pipe. Copper preferred and it is what AS uses from the factory. There are a some rubber hoses used at the regulator (from the tanks to the regulator).
