Flame King KT12ACR6 Auto Changeover LP Regulator Kit with 12" Pigtails

Flame King KT12ACR6 Auto Changeover LP Regulator Kit with 12" Pigtails

Two-stage automatic changeover propane regulator kit for dual-cylinder RV systems, with two 12" pigtail hoses included.

Why Use the Flame King KT12ACR6 Regulator Kit?

The Flame King KT12ACR6 is a two-stage automatic changeover LP propane regulator kit for RVs, trailers, and other approved dual-cylinder propane systems. It allows two propane tanks to be connected at once and automatically switches from the primary tank to the reserve tank when the primary tank runs empty.

This kit includes the automatic changeover regulator and two 12" pigtail hoses, making it a convenient replacement for compatible dual-tank RV propane setups. The indicator changes color when a tank has been depleted and needs to be refilled.

πŸ“„ Fitment & Support Notes

Confirm the RV uses a dual-cylinder propane setup, the included 12" pigtails are long enough, and the RV supply line can connect to the regulator’s 3/8" NPT female outlet. If the existing regulator uses different pigtail fittings, hose lengths, or outlet plumbing, additional parts may be required.

Auto Changeover Regulator Troubleshooting

Issue Possible Regulator / Setup Cause Other Causes to Check
Regulator does not switch tanks
Changeover lever may not be set correctly or one tank valve may be closed
Empty reserve tank, blocked pigtail, low cylinder pressure, excess-flow activation, or failed regulator mechanism
Low propane flow
Regulator may be restricted, undersupplied, frozen, or mismatched to demand
Low fuel, pigtail issue, kinked hose, cold weather vaporization limits, appliance demand, or blocked appliance orifice
Pigtails are too short
Included 12" pigtails may not suit the tank tray or regulator location
Regulator bracket position, tank spacing, cover clearance, and whether longer compatible pigtails are needed
Propane odor near regulator
Leak may be present at a pigtail, regulator fitting, outlet connection, or regulator body
Shut off propane, ventilate, avoid ignition sources, and leak-test or have the system inspected before use
Outlet hose will not connect
RV supply line may not match the 3/8" NPT female outlet
Wrong adapter, damaged threads, wrong hose type, or existing regulator used a different outlet connection

🚫 Propane Safety Warnings

Propane is flammable. Turn off propane before installation, use only approved LP gas fittings and hoses, never use thread sealant on flare fittings, and leak-test all connections before use. If propane odor is detected, shut off propane if safe, ventilate the area, avoid ignition sources, and have the system inspected before use.
