PROPANE Use this heater only with a propane vapor withdrawal supply system. The amount SUPPLY of propane gas ready for use from propane tanks varies. Two factors decide 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 propane tank. You may need two or more tanks or one larger tank in colder weather. Use a 45-kg tank for longer operation or in very cold weather. Less gas is vaporized at lower temperatures. Your local propane gas dealer will help you select the proper supply system. Average Temperature (°C) At Tank Location 5° 0° -7° -12° -18° Number Of Tanks (45-kg) 1111 1 INSTALLATION !
