Do you simple connect this to a propane tank like the one i have connected to my grill? How often could you expect to refill tank if 1person househo

Am sure it can be connected to a 20 Lb. tank with the correct regulator. We have 6 people and have only used 7% of 500 gallons with dishwasher 1 bath and a front load washing machine

Yes, we used a 10 gallon propane tank with 2 people in the household, last for 2 months.

You will need a regulator (like your grill has) , in addition to the tank.We have our heater run off a 500 gallon tank, hard to tell how long a 30 gallon tank would last. I would guess over a month, but just a guess. We love this heater, no regrets.bob

I am happy to respond to questions for free on behalf of amazon given my expertise in hooking up gas tanks and related dangerous materials. I connected my grill directly to a 500 gallons tank using a 300 feet hose. When it smells like gas I just put a mask on. Please contact a real professional and do not try this at home. Amazon - please hire customer support reps instead of emailing me and other customers.

The black part of the gauge screws onto your tank and you screw your grill into the other end. It is "in series" or "in-line" with your propane hose. Also, this gauge works perfectly on my tank. Just make sure you screw it on tightly. I have experienced accurate readings and zero leaks. Highly recommend.

you should be able to with a hose connector like a regular bbq that you would normally use at home. The small propane bottles are inexpensive and work really well. You just have to be sure you hold it upright and level when attaching it to the regulator, then, tilt it onto the holder.

If you go to a grill store, or hardware store they will have all fittings needed to accomplish this. If you were trying to hook up to a natural gas line you will need to buy a different regulator that will screw into the hose going to the grill. If you were trying to connect to another propane tank there are houses made that screw into the port of this grill, and on a regular size Propane tank.

It does not come with a tank. You have 2 options. If you buy the small screw-on tanks, available most anywhere like WalMart etc, everything is ready to attach one of those. I purchased two of those 16.4 oz tanks and after using the grill 3 times for about 25 minutes each, I still am on the first tank. If you want to hook it up to one of those larger propane tanks like those used for the big grills, you'll need to purchase a separate hose for that. I did buy one of those as well, but have not used it yet. One end attaches right to the grill and the other to the 5 gallon propane tank, nothing else needed but the hose itself.

i have filled the small one pounds size so you should be able to fill 20#tanks with this tank but will not fill it up all the way full look on ebay they should have a connector. the bad thing is the big tank has to be upside down for the gas to come out. hope this helps

Only thing you need is the propane tank, I haven't had to use mine but did take it out and look at it, it looks pretty simple to hook up and use, my only concern would be using for a long period in a small space.

Just a guess...but I"m thinking a bbq grill tank would need refilling too often if you used the stove on a regular basis.

I don't know how big a tank you have. but I used it to hook my grill to the house gas line, it MUST be regulated. there is a high pressure reg. on the tank ( 500 gal. or more ) then a low pressure reg. at the house, then I use a 1/4inch LP gas hose to connect to my grill. I hope this helps you out, if this don't help feel free to ask more. good luck Robert

I use the same size that works with the propane barbecue that I have that way if one runs out I can grab it from the other tank. I also use an exchange that only exchanges that size

The gas connect is inside but the propane tank would be outside. You can find the manual via using google to see how it connects.

The Chef's Mate does fine with a 5 gal. propane tank and low pressure regulator. I did need to call upon a plumber to assure the connection of grill to tank was done properly.

I use a propane tank with mine and never tried anyother way. I love this grill and use it all the time.

Yes, it does have the same sort of fitting that you use to connect a propane tank to a grill, so you could use the same tank for this that you use for your grill.

I use propane. There is a slide out drawer for the tank and hardware to connect in the unit.

No, it comes equipped to hook up to a 1lb propane tank. I had to buy an regulator adapter to hook it up to my 20lb propane tank. 15 bucks at lowes/home depot
