What are the specifications for the propane containers needed for this item and where can I purchase them. Also, can this item be used indoors?

Mary,If you have a hose that connects to a standard gas grill, it will connect to this one as well.
1566081
You can use the 14 oz or 16oz propane canisters that are available at most hardware stores, home centers (lowes, Depot), Mass merchants (WalMart, Target, Kmart, etc.) or sporting goods stores (Dicks, Sports Authority, Academy). IN addition you can purchase a conversion hose which you can connect directly to a 20lb propane tank (the ones that all big grills use.

What parts do I need to convert? I have a 20lb tank now with hose with quick change connection.
1566083
You can get these conversion hoses at any home center or hardware store for between 19.99 and 24.99.

Yes. This can be connected to a 20lb propane tank using a kit. Also be on the look out for a stand in the next couple of months

Propane grills generate a lot more carbon monoxide than your normal stoves, so using this indoors is extremely dangerous. CO suffocation is also very difficult to actively notice. People die this way.If you want a grill in your kitchen, consider a Jenn-Air.

Propane gas grilling, using propane gas tanks or canisters, is an outdoor activity, and is not something to try indoors. Although some people have used propane grills in their kitchens and garages, this is not advisable. The ideal location for grilling is outdoors in a well-ventilated area such as a patio, driveway or similar areas that are open to the fresh air and away from a building or any other flammable material.There have been several news reports over the past few years in which people had burned their homes down, or died by suffocation, when using an un-vented, or improperly vented, propane cooking or heating devices.

I don't believe so. It would probably be easier seeing if some retailer will simply swap it out for you. The natural gas units are usually about $20 more expensive than the propane units.

As the other person stated, you cannot just connect a gas line to a device that is designed to burn propane. Appropriate chages would need to be made. You can contract the manufacturer to see if they have a kit to allow the change. Insofar as the actual piping work to make the connection, you can do this yourself if you are familiar with working with pipe fittings, copper tubing, flaring tools, etc. Just be careful and soap bubble test all of your connections.

I wouldn't say no problems! Some places have a minimum amount they sell and it's 20 lbs. where I live in norther ca. 90% of the places that sell propane won't fill my tank because of that minimum. Unless you want to buy their minimum amount.

Certainly. You can connect it to any consumer propane tank, as all are refilled at your local hardware store/fuel dealer from a universal coupling. Make sure all connections are clean (rust & debris free) & tight (not dented or dropped.) A bigger tank will allow you to cover larger areas between refueling. We've been using ours for a couple of seasons and cost savings are huge compared to chemicals. Also, nice to know we're not putting down cancer-causing agents where pets & people walk.

I have this hooked to my house natural gas. It produces a great deal of heat with a significant gas flow. Although I haven't tried it with Propane I would guess a 20lb tank would be inadequate for the type of gas flow and heat produced.

I did some research for your great question and I found out that weber does not recommend or sell a kit conversion from propane to natural gas due to high risk factor, and the fact that you need a specialist to make the correct hook up. However, there are vendors that sell conversion kits that will fit in. I suggest if you're going to do that make sure you hire a professional to do this job. You don't want to make unessesary mistakes that could result in a great injury. http://help.weber.com/faqs/5/can-i-convert-my-grill-to-run-on-a-different-fuel-type

You might want to check with the manufacturer, but most times there needs to be a modification kit to change from natural gas to propane. Sorry I can't be of more help.

Yes, it can be hooked up to a propane tank you just need an adapter which you should be able to find at Home Depot

The directions say it takes 1/2 pound of propane a day to run, so that would be 2 days. However, the connector fits a 20 lb tank not a small can. I haven't tried it yet, but will get the big cylinder when I do.

Yes, you can use any size bottle or canister of propane. It's about how long it will last for what you need it to do. Anyway the answer is yes. BIG BOB out!

Not directly. This unit makes it easy to connect an external propane tank to the RV. This pigtail looks just like the one on the firepit (it connects to a tank). The other hose goes from the RV tank to a threaded end that is the same as a 1 lb (disposable) propane tank. You could make it work if you purchased an adapter that adapts a 1lb tank to a refillable tank fitting ( Camco 59213 Female POL/ Male ACME X 1"-20 Male Propane Adapter).

The conection on this item are incorrect for any gas,it would leak out the side and be very dangerous. Gas is not something that has a flimsy connection.

Lisa ,,, It will take any small standard propane tank. You can also connect a large 20 Gallon tank to it with a hose. I have had mine for a year now and it is working just fine with just basic cleaning now and then. I cook steaks burgers hot dog just fine and have made pan cakes and cooked eggs and bacon on it. No problem starting it with built in starter. Just turn on the gas wait a few seconds and hit the ignition button and it will ignite. you may have to hit the ignition button two or three times at times but that is not a prob. for me.

I am using the standard grill tank. I can't see why you couldn't use the 40# tank if the connections matched. The only time you are using propane is when you are using hot water. Depending upon your application a 20# tank might be large enough. It certainly is for me.

Yes it comes with a propane hose which can connect to 20Lb, 30lb or 40lb propane bottle just fine. Have not tried it on a larger propane bottle but I would think there would be no problem connecting to larger bottles/tanks with the proper connecting valves.
