Hopefully, Karen will feature on the podcast again soon. Alexis also adds the chaos and tries to stump Eric. But Eric figured out what part they needed every time! And of course, we were not making fun of our amazing customers, we were only highlighting how they can help us help themselves with finding what they need!

Staying on the Road: Eric explains how the RV Low-Pressure System on many RVs might have a Quick Connect for the Propane System to hook up BBQs, Grills conveniently, and other LP Appliances. Eric discusses how it is not as simple as it might seem, and usually, you will need an adapter to make your BbQ or Grill work with the quick connector. Most appliances have LP Regulators, as does your RV, and two regulators do not allow the appliance to work. The appliance can't have a regulator, which is where LP Adapters for the appliances come in. Listen to the full episode.
