Is the tank merely stored inside the heater or does it remain inside the heater while the heater is being used?

inside so it can be rolled around, it is separated from heating element ( there isn't a flame more like glow) with a metal liner

it remains inside (in the back) while using it. Mine has never shown any signs of warming up (the propane tank). I like mine very much. much better then any of the heaters I looked at that have plastic in them (plastic melts eventually)

The tank remains inside the heater at all times. Makes it very easy to move from room to room. They make good heat any time any place.

The tank remains in the cavity in the back of the heater all the time. The heater is open at the back .The tank takes up no additional space. I use this heater in a workshop setting in PA and a florida room setting in FL. Niether is sealed up too toghtly.

It stays inside the unit during use. I LOVE this heater. It works great. I use it in my garage during football season and it kees the garage nice and toasty. My brother has one as well and he uses it on his patio while entertaining. It is a great investment.

I keep my tank upright at most times but it appears the unit still works normally when laid down.

We don't know, but it will keep water liquid until it gets into low below zeros. Then you may have only a small whole in the tank that is liquid.

The tank sits on the floor inside the cabinet. I'm pretty sure....LOL...if it were not so cold outside and the grill wasn't covered, I'd go look, but I can assure you, it is nothing weird or unusual. I only say "I'm pretty sure" because some models have a "hanger scale" that indicates the amount of propane left in the tank. BUT....this model does not have that feature.

I have this heater fully submerged in a 5.5gal betta tank and I have had no problems with it. When you get the heater and actually see it you can tell it is sealed very well.

In our 'cat houses', the heater sits directy on the bottom of the container. We then put a thin toweeel on top of the heater, and it has worked fine for over 2 years. I hope this helps.

Yes, the heater should be safe for your tank. The heat output required will dependend on the temperature difference between your tank set point and your normal room temperature. You should check the manual to see if the heater has a high temperature shutoff feature (some heaters do).

Leave it attached to the tank so that it's readily available to use if you need it. You can store it out of the way until you need it again. Maybe in a top corner of the tank.

Probably you want to mean, that the pump is running. The tank has got an internal diaphragm which will allow for extra water to be stored until it gets the preset pressure.

3 years. It's not as long as other units, but it's probably one of, if not the best quality heater on the market. I'm beyond the 3 year mark with mine and I love it. It sure beats having a tank heater that requires maintenance and a fear of leaking. As far as I'm concerned I'm expecting a 15+ year lifespan and wouldn't be surprised to surpass 25 years. A tank heater is lucky to last over 12 years.

I know this is an old question but in case others come across this one... I live in MN and store my tanks in the garage. I've NEVER had a problem with them. I will say this - the valve/threads (and body of tank) may rust a bit if left unprotected which might make screwing them into the stove/heater a little harder and may also result in a less-perfect seal allowing some gas to escape. I'd say as long as you have a way to keep them dry-ish, you're in good shape.

Yes..Propane tank is conveniently and discreetly stored inside of the base. Access is easy through a side door.

This is not a holding tank. This is a point of use instant hot water heater. Hooked up properly it will heat cold water to a set temperature in demand.

Yes. The oil is already in the heater. It is sealed in the unit and does not come out.

I placed a heater in my tank. I have had it for a year now and like it a lot.

It has to be covered with water. There is a minimum water line which is above the top of the glass on the heater. Having said that, I have one in a sump and another in a water tank that I use for water changes and both heaters are lying on their side. I believe that heating manufactures tell you not to lie them down, but I don't know why. I have done it for years with no issues. You may want to check with the manufacturer.
