Propane Supply / Information:
Propane (LP)
This heater is not supplied with a propane cylinder. Use only
an approved propane cylinder.
LP Characteristics
– Flammable, explosive under pressure, heavier than air
and pools in low areas.
– In its natural state, propane has no odor, but for your
safety an odor that smells like rotten cabbage has been
added.
– Contact of propane (LP) gas with the skin can cause
freeze burns.
– Heater is manufactured for use with propane gas only.
DO NOT attempt to convert to any other gas. Such
modifications are dangerous and will void the warranty.

as specified in the American National Standard for
Compressed Gas Cylinder Valve Outlets and Inlets
Connections.

the vapor space of the LP cylinder.

operating cylinder.
