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.
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)
The chart below shows the number of 45-kg (100-pound) tanks needed to run this
heater. Do not operate this product with any tank smaller than 45-kg (100 pounds).
Less gas is vaporized at lower temperatures. You may need a larger tank in colder
weather. Your local propane gas dealer will help you select the proper supply
system.
