PROPANE

You must provide propane gas and propane tank(s).

 

SUPPLY

Use this heater only with a propane vapor withdrawal supply system. See

 

Chapter 5 of the Standard for Storage and Handling of Liquified Petroleum Gas,

 

ANSI/NFPA 58. 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 liquid propane gas in tank(s)

2.The temperature of tank(s)

The chart below shows the minimum number of 100-pound tanks needed to run the heater. Connect tanks together with a manifold. Do not operate this product with any tank smaller than 100 pounds.

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

VENTILATION

! WARNING

 

Follow the minimum fresh outside air ventilation requirements. If proper fresh outside air ventilation is not provided, carbon monoxide poisoning can occur. Provide proper fresh outside air ventilation before running heater.
