• Operating time will vary based on the
temperature of the surroundings and
if running the heater on low, medium,
or high setting. Rough guidelines are
as follows: Single 1lb cylinder (1.5 to
6hrs); 2 x 1lb cylinders (3 to 12 hrs);
20lb cylinder (24 to 108hrs); 2 x 20lb
cylinders (48 to 216hrs). Heater may be
operated from quick disconnect, one
or both regulated inlets. Due to the
properties of LP gas, runtimes can be
significantly reduced when operating
continuously at temperatures
below 20ºF. Use of a 20 lb. tank is
recommended in these conditions.
• When moving heater when lit or
bumping heater setting it down, the
tip over switch may shut off heater. If
this happens, re-light.
