Ours is connected to the natural gas line provided in our home by our community & region utility (Ameren Illinois).

you could use a grill bottle, not the little tiny ones, like the ones you can exchange at Home Depot and places.

35000 BTU is a large volume of Propane usage. You will need at least a 5-Gallon Propane bottle and you also need a regulator that can support a 35000 BTU appliance. Most BBQ Regulators are not big enough to do this, But Some are, like those for Turkey Fryers and 4-burner BBQs. You can find these at Home Depot, etc.. An RV Propane system is adequate. Go to the Kozy World website and download the manual.

I have a gas line connected to my heater... by the way I love it. Works great. If I had to guess - it depends on how often you will use it and at what level. but I would image a large tank - so you won't run out.

I used a quart for my 1985 Land Cruiser tank. It is about 25 gallons. I think to be safe I would double that for your tank. The stuff works just like advertised. I had excellent results.

Sorry, I'm using a regular 20lb tank and I have yet to run out. I've had it for quite a while.

Do some research, but the recommendation fr a 50-75w is ridiculously low. The minimum in a 30g tank would be 100 watts if you're just looking at a few degrees above ambient temperature. If you want to maintain more than five degrees above, then you should go with a 150 watts. Although it is more expensive to do, some people with larger tanks start looking at two smaller heaters, so maybe a 100 on one side and a 50 on the other, or a pair of 100s, so that your tank holds a reasonable temp if one fails and the wider spread of heating can help things even out better.

That wattage will be sufficient for your aquarium. 200 to250 handles a 55 gallon salt water tank easily.

The Rheem water heater uses 199,000 BTU or about 200 CF or 2 CCF. The Rheem installation manual is available on the Rheem web site. On page 53 of the manual, the manufacturer lists the minimum NG pipe size as 3/4 inch diameter. Typically, a tank type water heater has a 1/2 inch supply line that is reduced from a 3/4 inch or larger main supply line. So, you will need to replace the smaller gas line from the original reduction point to your new Rheem tankless water heater.

You can use a 1lb tank. I have it hooked to a 20 lb tank with an adaptor hose.

165,000 BTU for this unit. Im not sure where brian is getting his info but you need to know the unit BTU output to figure out the pipe size and so on. Were you able to hook your unit up? If so what size tank did you use? How long does the tank last?

I used the "HCS8715M Medline REGULATOR,0-15 LPM,870 CGA CONNECTION" that was recommended for the D size tank and smaller.

I have no idea what flow rate and capacity of Co2 your needs require or what sort of pressure regulation, etc., is appropriate. These are standard 20 lb tanks with pretty new inspection dates. If a standard Co2 tank is what you need for a planted aquarium, these are nice big ones that are not too big to be obtrusive or too heavy to carry. I would guess they run 50 plus pounds apiece filled, so two are reasonable to carry at one time. One big tank of the same capacity is pretty difficult to move and take in to get filled. The tanks are a good size, good quality and priced well, so I bought two to rotate in my Soda machine. Hope this helps some.

It all depends what you have in the tank! If it's a reef, you would want the tank cycled minimum 10x per hour. If you have freshwater with no live plants, then typically 4-5x is plenty.

I have a 60 gallon and from what I have seen as long as you can maintain 80psi you should be fine. Hope this helps.

It has to be just under a gallon, it's a big tank. We ran it all night every night and refilled every 2-3 days. Hope that helps!

I wouldn't recommend this for that size tank. Unfortunately I couldn't get mine to work, the tank would have to be at least 30 gallons to use it correctly

it depends on the filtering system, but i think 2 500ml should do the job, as i use 2 500ml bottles for my 60 gallon tank.

Yes, You Will need a pump, You need a pump at least ten times your tank size, if your tank is 50 gallons you need 500 GPH pump

Any size propane tank will work, it is just a matter of having the right adapters to connect. My unit had the typical connector you would find on a barbeque grill but I use an adapter for the 1 lb can, available at most hardware stores. Other than that just make sure you hook the hoses up correctly (I had the water in hooked to the water out on the first try).
