PROPANE HEATER TANK

Archive for the ‘propane tank sizes’ Category

With a boiler 199,000 btuh providing heating only (fin tube radiators)in a 3 bedroom house with 1 kitchen and 3 baths (2500 sq. ft. total area). How big is the propane tank have to be in order to provide heating through the entire heating season say 6 months without refilling the tank. please advise. Please note that the house will only be heated 4 hours per day.

I’m looking to move to All-Grain and have a Turkey Fryer picked out that *says* it features a 40,000 BTU burner. If I were to do a full boil of 6.5 Gal of wort, how much propane would I have to estimate using for a typical 1 hr boil…and will a 40k BTU burner even work for that?

I have a normal sized propane tank attatched to an old Weber grill. I cant seem to figure out how to remove the hose from the tank so i can go and get it refilled. My mom went by some place and some guy whowed her how, but she says its not the same, but even if it was the same i doubt she would remember how he did it.
Please help i really want my steak tonight.

If I used the BBQ size tank to run a stove would I use the regulator from a BBQ grill or the regulator that was on the 100 gallon tank that used to provide the gas for the stove?
Basically my question is:
Will the BBQ size tank be too small for the larger regulator?

generac air cooled 15/16 kw ….owners manual says natural gas = 173@half load, 245@full load and propane=1.59/59@half load,2.51/92@full load…nat gas is in cubic ft,lp is in gallons per hour/cubic ft….so with lp(propane) how big of a tank(gallons) do i need to run at half load for 5 days?

and just check it underneath? what about a machete, or pocketknife? i am planning a camping trip, and i just realized a propane tank will probably not be allowed on the plane.
the best answer will be awarded.

We had a 57 gallon propane tank outside out house that was used for a gas stove only. We only went through about 20 gallons of propane per year. This tank (with a half tank of gas) was recently stolen. Is it possible to hook up a gas grill or similar sized propane tank in place of the larger tank that was there? We are selling the house and will not be remaining there long term so it seems pointless to go through the hassle of having another full-size tank installed and paying for a full tank of gas.

We are planning to add an above ground stationary propane tank (200 gal.) for heating/refrigeration/hot water in a trailer on our farm. I want to be able to refill a variety of bbq sized tanks from this–is that possible?
