Can i supply propane to it using 1" gas pipe from home depot?

Yes, Home Depot should have all the adapters you need, the plumbing guy at my HD was fantastic and showed me what I needed in a couple of minutes that would have taken me loooong time, so get help.

The fittings on the water heater are 3/4 inch, the 1 inch pipe will need to be reduced to 3/4 inch to fit, Home Depot will help you, just ask!!

I am hoping you are not thinking of hitching this up to the natural gas supply in your house. I can't imagine you not blowing yourself up if you do. I would seek the advice of a certified plumber but my initial reaction is that the pressure of gas coming into your house from the street is far greater than what this unit can handle. If you mean gas from a large outside propane unit, that is probably doable, but again I would seek the advice of a professional. Gas is one thing I wouldn't fool around with.

Yes with the proper hookup kit. They are available on the internet or in stores or a professional can assemble one for you, which is recommended if you are not experienced with gas fittings. And remember, fire code does not allow the propane cylinder in the house, so you will need a long enough hose to keep it outside.

Your building code will let you know if it's okay. Some states let you have a propane ventless but not natural gas and there's restrictions as to what room you may install the unit, as in not a bedroom. And yes a gas line is needed for the gas unit. I put in my line but I'm a building contractor, so unless you are handy you will need a plumber to install the line.

Feliciah04, Hose is about 5 feet long, and yes a longer one could be used; just be sure you use one that is designed for LP gas usage, with the proper hose and fittings, not just any hose. Hoses could be available at a camping store or a propane dealer. Hope this helps, Jim.

yes but you will need a regulator and a bottle of propane like for a gas grill will only last a very very short time. There are much better heaters available for what you need this heater to do.

just need a BBQ type reg and hose, or borrow the one off your BBQ. I bought one at the local Ace hardware, but Home Depot carries them too. Walmart might also. Camping goods places, Walmart, Sports authority, Camping world , will have ways to do multiple hookups. so one tank will do several things. Remember it takes propane, not natural gas.And you have to adjust the air to get a pretty blue flame with the bolt that fits in the burner.

Yes it can. I think the feet are included with the unit. Just remember you have to run the propane / natural gas line to the unit. You may need a 90% coupling to hook up gas line.

Almost any propane appliance is convertable to gas. You simply have to re-jet the orifice to an appropriate larger size, as natural gas burns at a slightly cooler temperature than propane. It is possible to drill out an orifice to a larger size, or you can check with your gas supplier to see if they offer this service. An appliance repairman might do this but the cost should be considered. Consult your friends and family and see if anyone you know will do you a favor, or check craigslist for appliance guys for a quote. I would google it and see the size conversion and drill out the orifice that came with the unit, but I am a blacksmith and therefor un-afraid of anything.

I am assuming you are asking if you can hook this line up to your home propane tank in order to run a grill. I would say yes if you have a licensed plumper to run a hard line away from the tank with the proper fittings.

The manual says to only use the recommended tanks and says that it's not safe to use others. That doesn't mean that you "can't" use another tank with it, but it probably means that it's inadvisable and likely invalidates the warranty. I have not tried to hook anything other than 1-lb. propane tank to it (Ace Hardware brand), so I can't say for sure what is possible. I can only say that I wouldn't try to do it because I'm pretty squeamish about possible leaks using hardware that's no recommended by the manufacturer.

The supply line, is 3/8 . Line to the unit is 1/2. But it is Natural Gas. Not propane

I haven't tried that but if recollection serves me it said there was some kind of conversion kit you could get to use natural gas instead of propane. Sorry I can't be more exact.

I use natural gas which connects to our home gas line. A small propane tank would work on a unit made up for propane use.

Yes, but it a very easy task. Just follow the directions & you'll be fine. It's well worth it & much cheaper than propane!

I do not believe you can. The trailer systems are pressure regulated at the propane bottles. The stove pressure regulator is the connector to the stove itself and designed to have propane bottle pressure at the connector regulator. Tapping into your external gas tap would give you a low pressure problem at the stove. I would not do it. Buy the adapter hose and run it off a 20lb or 10lb propane bottle. I use a 10lb bottle I got from camping world it is small and stores easily. Saves $ by not using the disposable bottles. Hope this helps.

you need to find out what the heater is set up for natural gas or propane. If it is propane then of course you can get a tank delivered. if it is set up for natural gas then if you live where it is in the road or if you have a natural gas water heater or funace then you could have a plumber pipe a line to where you want it. just make sure to find out what the heater is set up for. You can buy the new items to convert it to what ever you are going to be using.
