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 li- brary or fire department will have this book- let.

The amount of propane gas ready for use from propane tanks varies. Two factors de- cide this amount:

1.The amount of propane gas in tank(s)

2.The temperature of tank(s)

The chart below shows the number of 100- pound (45 kg) tanks needed to run this heater.

Do not operate this product with any tank smaller than 100 pounds (45 kg).
