Do NG barbecue units require a pressure regulator?
Thank you,

Yes indeed.
Almost all natural gas and LP appliances utilize a seperate regulator at (or
built into) the unit, including stoves, cooktops and BBQ's. Typical
settings are from 3.5" to 5" water column on the outlet side. The
meter/regulator does not step down this far. If you don't use one, the
flame will be blowing and lifting off, making for a cold flame with a high
level of flue by-products such as CO.
Check with the unit manufacturer for proper manifold settings for their
particular burner.
