Personally I have a Prestige Twin-Head Napoleon BBQ and I love it. This one is maybe too big but they have a wide range of BBQ and I really think it's the best BBQ I never had. Here is a link that might be useful: Napoleon BBQ

I don't know about the CharBroil, but I converted my Members Mark to NG a year ago by drilling the orifaces for the main burners to 5/64's and the back burner to 1/16th -- this may at least get you started in the correct direction. When you convert to NG you do not need a regulator. One less thing to go out. ;->

Java, Has the grill ever worked when attached to this stub out? If not, you might want to check (or have the plumber check) the connection of the gas line from the stub out to the main manifold. It's likely in the attic. If it's not the main connection, the quick-connect you are using SHOULD cause the gas to flow when seated and the house-mounted fittings SHOULD close when the quick-connect is undone. The Someone over on the plumbing board probably can answer your questions best since it seems like a plumbing or fitting issue of some kind and not one related to the grill itself. Michelle

I haven't tried running the unit any more but I did do some double checking on the gas lines and think I have found a problem that would affect the sytem when it is heavily loaded. My gas meter is a "pound meter" running 1.2-2.2 psi. The gas meter feeds an Earthquake shutoff valve with a 1" inlet and outlet, which then feeds the low pressure regulator with a spring set at 6-8" WC. The problem I see is the outlet of that regulator is only 1". The 1" section is only 2 inches long after which it transitions to 1-1/4" pipe... but if I look at the gas tables a 1" pipe can only flow 286 CFH (~ 286K Btu/hr) at 50 ft and 259 CFH at 60 ft, the approximate distance to the furthest appliance. With all appliances running full tilt my load is about 485,000 Btu/hr. Thus, I do not believe the 1" section is large enough. The installation does not have a gas line drip leg before the Noritz unit. If that was an oversight by the gas piping contractor, the inspector also missed it, or we don't have the requirement in our local area. I'll be talking to the contractor about the 1" pipe section and lack of a drip leg this week. One thing I wonder about is the Noritz startup gas load... when it fires up the exhaust blower runs at high speed, so I'm guessing the unit requires a lot of gas to get going, after which it drops down once the cold water is up to temperature. If the unit is attempting to start while the furnace and old gas WH are running, I wonder if the 1" restriction in the piping is causing the low gas pressure? It's all very frustrating.
