Less gas is vaporized at lower temperatures. You may need two or more 100-pound tanks or one larger tank in colder weather. Your local propane gas dealer will help you select the proper supply system.

VENTILATIONWARNING

Provide at least a 3-square-foot (0.3 m2) opening of fresh, outside air while running heater. If proper outside air ventilation is not provided, carbon monoxide poisoning can occur. Provide proper outside air ventilation before running heater.

PREPARATION

WARNING

Test all gas piping and connections for leaks after preparation or servicing. Never use an open flame to check for a leak. Apply a mixture of liquid soap and water to all joints. Bubbles forming show a leak. Correct all leaks before using product.
