Coldwater Crappie Guy Posted October 6, 2014 Share Posted October 6, 2014 Does anyone know where I can get a dual propane regulator of my ice castle? I have 2 30 lb tanks and it came with only one hose for the tanks. I think it would be a real pain changing that in the middle of the night on a real cold night . Any idea on the cost with the quick connect fasteners?Thanks ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arcticm1000 Posted October 6, 2014 Share Posted October 6, 2014 I got mine from Milaca Unclaimed Freight. I think it was around $60, if I remember correctly. It came with the quick connect fasteners.http://www.milacaicecastlefishhouses.com/accessories/exterior.html#lp-tank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutlawBiz Posted October 6, 2014 Share Posted October 6, 2014 Any camper / RV sales or repair shop. Local elevator or whomever sells bulk propane probably carries them too. I bet Fleet & Farm or Runnings even has them... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brian6715 Posted October 6, 2014 Share Posted October 6, 2014 For what it's worth, Fleet Farm in Lakeville does not carry them, they only have single tank setups. I was just there this weekend looking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lip_Ripper Guy Posted October 6, 2014 Share Posted October 6, 2014 The online auction site usually has a few for a good price.For what it's worth, I never set mine to automatically switch over. It's nice to know if/when the first tank runs out so you can accurately gauge how much time you have left, or if you need to make a propane run.

My ice castle also came with the single, bought a double at the local camper place, and it just has a lever pointed to one tank or the other, but it WILL automatically switch over, I have to watch the red/green gauge to know whether I'm empty on that tank.

Lip_Ripper Guy Posted October 6, 2014 Share Posted October 6, 2014 Good question....should have been more clear. I just keep the valve closed on the 2nd tank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harvey lee Posted October 6, 2014 Share Posted October 6, 2014 I do the same thing. Easy to find the regulators, online or just do a search. Its worth the time as they do vary in price.If I did not close the valve on the other tank, I would empty the both of them as I would forget about them. Easy to open the valve is the heat quits.

So if you don't plan on using the auto switch over feature, save some money and just get a dual regulator with manual switch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OutlawBiz Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 What online auction site? The 'big' one that starts w/ an 'e' then rhymes w/ hay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eagle_3464 Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 I found the best price at Miltona Blacksmith. Even though I built my own frame Don sold me many of the components at a price that was better than I could find elsewhere, and I did spend a lot of time on the web searching for best prices.

Hawg Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 Don has great prices on all the extras you need. His price on a furnace was the best I found anywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coldwater Crappie Guy Posted October 8, 2014 Author Share Posted October 8, 2014 Called Miltona and I'm going to stop in there next week to get one. My shack is only about 10 miles away so it's a win win situation! Thanks for the heads up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
