It uses a standard 20 pound BBQ tank. Ive always had great luck with the Blue Rhino brand. Highly recommended!

Uses normal grill-size tank. Heat is similar to a one burner gas grill. Tank is hidden behind side panels and sits in a metal frame up off the ground.

It uses the same propane tank you use for a bbq. As far as the heat goes it puts out allot of it I leave it Med and bought additional lava rocks at Loes to put in the tray you deffinitaly feel it on a chilly night.

The tank is a standard grill tank. It doesn't pit oit too much heat. Less than a wood burning stove. The tank sits on a sheld inside the unit and is hidden by a door/panel.

It takes a standard propane tank that you use in a gas grill and it does put out enough heat to feel cozy on a cool evening. The tank is not visible from the bottom and sits on a perch inside the unit. We like the Blue Rhino enough that we bought another one for our grown son and his family.

It uses a standard 18 lb tank. It puts out plenty of heat... We roast marshmallows all the time. No the tank is not visable, it's behind one of the side panels. The tank sits on a shelf behind a panel, you can move the table without dragging the tank. It's been a great addition to our patio.

Heat is less than a gas BBQ. Tank is not visible outside. It sits on a shelf.

The little tank that is displayed is disposable. It does NOT come with a tank. They are the same tanks used for camp stoves, lights, etc. You can find them in any number of places (they are about $3-4 in my area). You can also buy an adaptor hose to hook this up to the larger, 20lb propane tanks you find on propane grills.

Go to your local hardware and grab a 20lb tank the size you would put on a Outside Cooking grill. sometimes you can find them at yard sales or second-hand shops for cheap. We use a 20 pounder "Outside Grill Size" works great.

a small portable tank would be attached on the right side and free standing. If you opt for the 20gallon hose connector kit and a larger 20gallon tank you would set the tank away and below the grill on the ground or right under it if using the solaire stand.

The tank is 6.6 gallons, a pretty decent size and it doesn't have a large 'footprint' (meaning it doesn't stick out far from the wall or whatever you put it against).

I'm sorry, but once we assembled ours, we threw them away. Just an FYI, we wanted a shorter heater on our deck, to heat the seating area. When we used it when it was tall, we couldn't feel the heat. I had the legs cut off, but the rubber feet into the shorter legs, and now it keeps us warm when we are seated. Obviously, the propane tank sits to one side, but we sure are warm!!

Jerry I purchased mine for additional heat in my shop that is attached to my home , I also attached it to my 500 gal L.P. tank but you will need a regulator placed on that line , do not go direct from the tank with-out one !!! Note there is a slight smell , for the price it works great . any other questions contact me .

I would not cook over it, it does not have a burner shield like a gas grill does.The tanks cost abt $3.50 and seem to last abt 6 hrs depending on if on high or low. It's more for looks than producing heat. I live in Fl and on a low wind, 60deg night, fun to have on the porch.

On a low setting a 20lbs tank will last 20 hrs. On a high setting it will last 8. Heat raises so not much insulation is needed. My tank is 1' below the fire.

No, it goes outside of it. It comes with about 4' of hose, and there's an additional side table you can buy that the tank will fit in. We were able to hide the tank behind a patio sectional sofa, and feed the hose underneath, so it wasn't an issue for us.

20 lb tank is fine. I think you can burn a couple lbs an hour, but it heats up so fast I always turn it off after a 1/2 hr and back on later.

I actually love this little tank. I had it as a saltwater pico tank for a while than a treatment tank for freshwater. A little 35 watt heater from Walmart will fit into the return section.

I think it is a 2.5 gal tank. I use miine for several purposes. Grill, cooker, and heater. Much easier than the large tank.

where is the tank stored or is it directly hooked up like a bbq - or do you have to switch when you use the pizza oven

How many gallons are you going to heat? What is the night time temp?The gas line connection is 1/2". I reduced down to 3/8" with 10 feet of line and a high demand regulator (140k btu) on a 100lb tank. Got everything at Tractor Supply. At first I used this on a 600gal Intex kiddy pool. When the outside temp was below 40f it took about 30 mins to go from 70f to 104f water temp . One 20lb tank would freeze up when I tried. I found a 100lb tank works way better.

I heat a 32x32 shop and don't leave it on constantly, on and off every other hour to keep it warm. A 5lb tank will last me about 5 days heating only in the 10 hour period there in an average outside tempeture of 30 degree
