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 de- cide 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 9 kg (20 lb) propane tank. You may need two or more tanks or one larger tank in colder weather. Use a 45 kg (100 lb) tank for longer operation or in very cold weather. Less gas is vaporized at lower tem- peratures. Your local propane gas dealer will help you select the proper supply system. The minimum surrounding air temperature rating for each heater is -29°C (-20°F).
