Hi, I was wondering if this grill can use a 15 lb tank instead of the 20 lb. tank? I have a new 15 lb tank

There is room underneath for a 20 lb. tank but as long as the connections are the same I don't see any reason why a 15 lb. tank can't be used. By the way - by far and large this is the best grille I have ever owned and I would never buy another Char-Grille or comparable. It may cost more but "you get what you pay for". :)

As far as I know it only takes the standard size propane tanks, and this appears to be indicated on the Broil King website as well.I think, however, the same company at one point made a portable grill that did use the 1lb canisters. (Although it doesn't seem to be on their website now.)

Standard propane tank sits upright (like any grill). Don't think larger is an option unless you assemble without the tank guards. Standard tank is lasting for long time with regular use.

Hi Clyde: It takes the small propane tank (16.4 fl oz.) which actually lasts a very long time. There is an adaptor you can buy for the big, regular propane tank. I have really enjoyed this bbq, it cooks very well and is easy to clean. Good luck.

I modified mine to run directly off the RV's propane. How long it runs on a 20lb tank would depend greatly on how high you set the flame which is adjustable.

You may use the small one pound cylinder by screwing it into the fitting one th right side of the grill. I prefer to use the adapter to attach a larger propane bottle. I also have a five foot long propane hose to run from the grill to five gallon tank. You may need an adapter on the tank side also. The grill works great and I use it a lot at home and camping.

No, you have to buy tank sepparately. I live in Colombia, and the we use here a 20 lb. or 30 lb. tank, which fits inside the grill.

you can cook aprox. 1,5 h - 2.0 h on high heat with the 14oz portable propane canister. yes, you can connect it to a bigger LP tank, 5lb or more including 20 lb tank. all you need is an adapter hose like "Weber 6501 6' Adapter Hose For Weber Q Series & Gas Go-Anywhere" - Weber 6501 Adapter Hose for Weber Q-Series and Gas Go-Anywhere Grills, 6-Feet - or something similar. happy grilling!

No you can not use a 20lb tank. We live in a condo and we love it. A one pound tank works great for us.

If your grill works with the standard 20# propane tanks you can buy at Lowes or Home Depot (or numerous other places), then it will work with this tank also. If your grill does *not* work with the standard 20# tanks currently for sale, then it also won't work with this tank.Basically, this is just like those standard tanks, only smaller (and therefore holding less propane). The connections are the same. Compatibility is the same. Hope that helps!

It would depend on the size of the tank, I guess. A regular 20 pound tank fits with room to spare. I'd go out and measure mine, but it's covered by 3 feet of snow. I'm sure if you Google the model number and look at a manual it will tell you the size of the cabinet below the grill.

When my 20-lb tank on my grill runs out, instead of going out to fill it and ruining my meal, I just screw this adapter on and then I grab a 1-lb can of propane and screw it onto the other end and I am able to keep on cooking and then fill my 20-lb can later. I hope I have been of help to you.

Yes this will work with grills that use the small 1 pound tanks. HOWEVER, the hose I received was (and still is) defective. For some reason this hose reduces the volume (flow) and will only work on low flame. I have another hose and used that one...

yes you can use 20lb tank with this heater depending on amount of time required to heat area

I would like to use the larger size propane tank with this grill. Is it safet to do that and were could I buy a supply line to connect the two?

I would stay with the 20LB tank...keep a spare if you are worried about running out while cooking. A tank next to the grill looks too tacky.
