can the cooker be connected to a regular house gas line or it needs a propane tank?

it is a propane cooker. I do not think the oriface on the unit support nat gas.

......unless you buy a natural gas model... If they make one; go ahead and get this one, but make sure you buy the 40 lb regulator. It'll sound like you're inflating a hot air balloon and no one will be able to keep up with the speed of your boiling point!

It is designed to be hooked up to a standard tank not a portable. It comes with a 3/8 flare fitting(male) so your supply hose needs a female and a pressure regulator. It is also designed to be in a box or cabinet. We have it and love the the two different burners.

This unit can accept both propane or gas, propane use can not be in regular cylinders (as those used in grills),but you can use large cylinders that will be piped from the outside of your home.

I have a small propane grill and have used the cooker on that. Works just fine.

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.

Mine required a gas line, but you can buy them ready for a propane tank. Great product !

No, it requires a regulated gas supply down to a low pressure in inches of water, not tank pressure. Look at a Mr. Heater Buddy heater, they have an internal pressure regulator and are designed to connect directly to a tank such as a small cylinder or a 20 lb grill size tank or larger.

I bought this heater for my father in law in Ohio, I believe that he has it installed with an existing gas line with valve inside his cottage, just like hooking up a gas stove. It was a replacement for him. I think you should get the manual or call the vender.

It should be a residential type tank 100 gal or larger, and needs a pressure regulator. My propane company came out and did the LP hookup after I installed the unit, I found they were happy to do this as I pointed out it was another unit to use their propane besides the stove...

Yes. Purchase the extension hose and you can hook it up to the large propane tanks. Those tanks are more economical and last much longer than the small ones

Not directly to it. First you would have to get an adapter at Walmart to connect the 1 pound tank to an RV pressure regulator which has a coupling designed to connect to a larger RV tank. Between the stove top and regulator you would attach an appropriate length of propane gas line. If you want to connect a 1 pound tank directly you'll need to get a camping stove made to use that way.

Not directly and it really shouldn't be hooked directly because it would possibly melt the exterior and blow up. You would need a extension black iron pipe to get it out of the appliance chamber so that it doesn't get the heat. The connection needs to be outside the cooking zone. You will also need an adaptor to go from the pipe 1/2"npt (national pipe thread) to the 3/8" that is supplied. You should be able to get this at either a place that sells gas appliances or bring the parts to a good hardware store.

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.

You can use any type of propane tank you want as long as the fittings match. As a caution, I might add, make sure the tank you use has enough propane in it to complete your meal. It's a downer to run out of gas in the middle of a meal, and have to start from scratch.

Yes, the heater is ready to go except you'll need propane It uses the common stubby propane canisters used in propane lamps, etc. Of course, you can buy the optional extension hose and filter and connect it to a larger BBQ size propane tank for much longer run time.

Mine came with a hook up for propane tank. I can't say if you can use natural gas or not.
