Is the propane tank shown in the picture refillable or just disposable?

The tank shown is just disposable. If you are using the heater to heat a garage I would recommend you purchase the hose and adapter to connect to a 20lb. propane tank. Running the heater on high I have been hard pressed to get more than 4 hours per 1lb tank.

Those are the "Stubby" disposable cylinders that it is designed to use. A hose, regulator, fuel filter, and adpater are available to allow use for the large barbecue tanks, but you are not supposed to use those indoors. I find the stubby disposable tanks last a couple of hours at full power. I have a few items that use these, and found some at Ace Hardware for $3.49, so grabbed a bunch.

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.

These tanks are sold as a "one use only" tank...so refilling them is not recommended.

Yes, its the 1 pound disposable tanks. You can actually get them at Wal-mart 2 for $5.50 in my area. They last about 5 hours if you leave the heater on low.

You would have to purchase your own disposable tanks. You can find good deals from any sporting goods stores for 2 pack propane canisters for about $6. Last month Target had Coleman brand two pack cannisters for under $6. I also find good prices at Ace Hardware or Sportco in my area. You would have to look around to see about good deals. Remember to grab the 2 packs more bang for the bucks.

I got my canisters in the camping department at a local store. I don't know if Amazon sell it but it it very possible they do. It is propane in small canisters.

The 11 lb. propane tank holds a little less than 11 pounds of propane. Commercial propane weighs about 3.696 lbs per gallon, so an 11lb tank holds about 2.98 gallons of propane. The typical 20 pound tank holds somewhat less than 20 pounds. So figure that the little tank is roughly half the capacity of the larger ones. The tank I bought is still working well, and it can be refilled wherever propane tanks are refilled. Many places charge by the pound as well for refills, though I've seen some that would charge a flat $10 or $12 for a refill of the 11 pounder regardless of how empty it was.

You pop the tank out if I remember right. There's a hole at the top to fill it. Like I've said elsewhere though I would never recommend this machine as when it breaks, it's disposable.

It's empty, I'm pretty sure it is very illegal to ship a filled propane tank. However, I have yet to find a propane tank less expensive than this one (I have seen this one in store from $50+). The tank is 'pre-purged', so if you do buy it and go to fill don't let the people try to charge you for purging it. I filled my tank at a local U-Haul for about $18.

Tank is sold separately. Cost is about 20 dollars for the tank itself and about 20 dollars to fill the tank with propane.

No, the fuel lasts a long time - but I use it periodically. It's easy to refill.

It uses the small green tank sold at most Walmarts. I bought two tanks and a valve on amazon to refill them from a 20# tank. I love this grill for camping.

No, it would be extemely dangerous to ship the tank loaded with propane, thus it is empty. You would need to find a location that offers to fill tanks such as a service station.

I use a regular tank that you can buy and refill at any walmart or gas station (the one used I most BBQ grills), but with the right fitting valve you could use any tank,The only thingh I think this stove is too big to carry to a park

It is propane fueled. The green part at the end of the hose, in the picture, is what connects to your tank

It uses the standard propane tank that is typically available at Home Depot, Lowe's and other general Hardware or Farm Supply stores. It will be about 12" diameter and 18" tall. It may also be referred to as a 40# tank. This is a very common tank and you will have to buy the first tank and then get it re-filled when empty. Most of these stores can either re-charge your empty tank or will exchange it with a full one they will have in stock. Typically you would simply exchange your depleted tank with a re-charged one that these stores will have on hand. Good luck and hope you enjoy this heater. The chimney is GLASS so be very careful when using, moving or storing this heater.

I would recommend denatured alcohol, which you can find in most hardware stores without a problem. I took a quick look online regarding the use of propane and couldn't find much. Fortunately, the alcohol is cheap, burns clean, and is easy to carry.

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.

It is not refillable, but I found a great lighter that is. It is the zippo flexneck lighter.

The propane tank is not included. However, they are easy to come by. You can purchase straight empty and fill it as needed or convenience stores have swap out cages set up. Make the initial purchase of filled tank for $50 and trade in when empty for a full for $20
