I’m wondering if leaving our grill outside year round in our southwest facing birdcage, in the intense Florida sun and heat, is causing the regulator to prematurely fail? Others experience would be appreciated. I’m getting tired of replacing the dam thing.

If sun exposed to it try turning it around? Probably they don’t make them like they use too would be my guess. My cheap makers mark set for years exposed to sun, no leaks yet? But it’s at least 15 or 20 years old. Yes, I have replaced grates, heat shields, and igniter couple time that I had scavenged from grills out on curbs. If grates was too big, I just cut them down to fit.
