Review on πŸ” Camco 59005 Propane Double-Stage Auto-Changeover Regulator for Dual Propane Tank RV Hookups - Ensures Consistent Gas Pressure with Automatic Switching from Empty to Full Tanks by Affan Yeo

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Failed after a little over a year

14 months after I bought this unit, it no longer maintained a constant output pressure even though both reservoirs were full. this. You turn on the propane stove and the flame drops to almost zero after a normal start with a big flame. My instantaneous water heater keeps getting the message "Flame off". Of course the one year warranty expired three months ago so I had no luck getting a replacement from Camco: (Note that it worked great initially and was easy to swap between tanks. Update: Bought a Marshall Excelsior MEGR-253H Excela -Auto Flow Controller via Revain as I didn't want to make the mistake of buying another potentially faulty Camco 59005 unit. It took me about 15 minutes to swap out the unit. To my delight my range is now working great and most importantly, I have hot water straight away. Even better than it was when the Camco was new - it's so nice to take a hot shower in the morning :) Finally, another plus point of the Marshall design is that it has a pressure release port right on the unit The pressure release port I can quickly confirm at the starting point of the system.

Pros
  • Hands-free operation
Cons
  • Slightly torn
