Question: My Travel Trailer has a 1/2″ gas line running underneath along the frame. There is a Tee with a short stub which is capped off near the rear. I would like to remove the cap and replace it with a fitting so I could hook up an outdoor grill. Is there a quick release fitting that will work or do you have any suggestions?
Answer: Given what you describe, you can probably find a quick release fitting if you go to a store that deals with these sort of products. However, consider the impacts of road debris the and elements on a quick release connection. It might be better to put in a fitting that you can control manually and keep clean. And that way you will know for sure that the gas is turned off at the Tee when you are not using it.
We suggest you go to a store that sells fittings for gas appliances and/or grills and ask what they think. Camping World or a home improvement store might be able to help.
