Natural Gas(NG) vs. Liquid Propane(LP) Fuel
Liquid Propane - LP gas is commonly used in small tanks that sit beside or inside of your grill. LP tanks can be purchased an refilled at many hardware stores and stores that sell grills. A hose and regulator are required to supply and regulate the gas to your grill. Some residences have large, in-ground propane tanks. In this case the grill would be set up for LP, but it may require a special regulator for the gas line.
 
Natural Gas To use natural gas fuel on your grill, you will need to have access to a underground natual gas line. Most NG grills come with 8-12 foot flexible hoses for connecting your grill. Small to medium size grills will have a 3/8" connection, and larger grills will use a 1/2" connection.
