PROPANE SUPPLY
Propane gas and propane tank(s) are to be furnished by the user.
Use this heater only with a propane vapor withdrawal supply system.
See Chapter 5 of the Standard for Storage and Handling of Liquefied
Petroleum Gas, ANSI/NFPA 58 and/or CAN/CGA B149.2. Your
local library or fire department will have this booklet.
The amount of propane gas ready for use from propane tanks varies.
Two factors decide this amount:
1. The amount of propane gas in tank(s)
2. The temperature of tank(s)
This heater is designed to operate with a minimum 20-pound
propane tank. You may need two or more tanks or one larger tank
in colder weather. Use a 100-pound tank for longer operation or in
very cold weather. Less gas is vaporized at lower temperatures.
Your local propane gas dealer will help you select the proper supply
system. The minimum surrounding air temperature rating for each
heater is -20°F (-29°C).
