Default Regulator for Weber Q gas grills

I have a Weber Baby Q grill which I am reasonably satisfied with.
The only reservation I have is that it does not really get very hot,
even on full blast.

Since I live in Norway I had to get a special regulator which fits with
the propane bottles. Someone told me that regulators come with
different pressure/throughput ratings, ie. the regulators restricting
the propane flow migth be the bottleneck causing the low BTU output.

I plan to compare the specs of the US version regulator with the one I
have. Does anyone know what the specs for a regulator should be in the
US for a Weber Baby Q (or any Weber for that matter, I don't think they
are different, a friend of mine having a Weber Genesis have this same
problem).

Thanks in advance.

Helge

Default Regulator for Weber Q gas grills

I recently had a very similar problem with my Weber Genesis. Replacing the
regulator corrected it. The vendor told me that regulars are the same on all
gas grills. Apparently this is common after so many years of usage.
Good Luck,
Kent
