How many meals to expect from one tank
"Alex" > wrote in message ... > of propane gas using highest heat setting. Just curious Between 12 and 117. Honest. Propane has 91044 Btu per gallon. A grill can run from 15,000 Btu to 60,000 Btu on high. You can be cooking a hot dog or steamship rounds of beef. To satisfy your curiosity you'll have to do some math. Always smart to have a spare tank also. Ed |

Alot cheaper to buy it bulk plus it is delivered twice a year. If you have propane heat for your home, just splice into the big tank (with care of course). DT > |

We're OK to use flexible hose inside the house and a rubber hose attached through a safety/quick couple connection. Harry |

The flexible tubing for gas retrofits or conversions of wood fireplaces was approved by CSA and is legit all across Canada. It is NOT a rubber hose. It is armoured and intended to be used in an enclosed space. The exterior hose is the same stuff you use for LPG and is clipped to the outside of the house via a safety/quick/release couple fitting. The gas company installs them routinely. HAD |

We had two gas "fireplaces" put in a couple of years ago and they used the flexible hose to connect 'em. I doubt it there is an area that is more picky about codes than Poughkeepsie. Worth askin' anyhow. -- Steve Experience is a wonderful thing. It enables you to recognize a mistake when you make it again. |
