How many BTUs per 20,000 gal? Not sure. The model I bought was based on the recommendation of my pool guy. I have a biggish pool but its not a deep diving pool. It's 17000 gal. Hope this helps. (I'd call around to local pool dealers and ask them.)

Pool heaters are sized by the surface area of a pool, not gallons. Assuming you have a typical 16 x 32 in ground pool, which is about 20,000 gallons, you would need a 200,000BTU Heater. Go here for an exact answer http://www.haywardnet.com/pdfs/Heater_Selection_Guide.pdf

I used this as a guide http://www.poolcenter.com/heaters_what_size.htm, but there are calculators out there that get more specific. I had a 400k btu heater and replaced it this year with a 200k heater. My pool is 18,000 gallons with a deep end, I've been plenty happy this year with the 200k btu heater. I live in the D.C. area but I have 75% shade on my pool all the time. The 200k heater raises the temp 1-1.5 degrees per hour, which is more than enough for me.

You can use 20 to 100 lbs tanks,I have found that a 30 or 40 lbs work the best [ease of movement and time before you have run out to refill your tank] As far as how long a 20 lbs tank will last-At full 60000 btu,outside 20f about 8 to 10 hrs.

BTU's is the measure of burner output and uses the time to boil water to make that determination. Used sparingly, 1 persons meal at a time, using a thin metal cooking vessel, im thinking 15 meals possibly more.

I would believe this is 13000 BTU. I have the unit and it cools my 20' x20' room. I would not count on more than that for this unit.

I have a 20 gallon aquarium also and I have a 100 watt but you could probably get away with a 50 watt. I always set the heaters up vertical so really couldn't tell you on that

The amount of BTUs. One model puts out 333,000 BTUs and the other 400,000 BTUs, so one will heat up your spa or pool much quicker

On the package it says 20-50 gallon. It has 2 outlets that makes it pump 3500cc a minute.

I have a 30 X 10" and it puts out about 108000 btus with a half inch connection. I have a 3/4" supply line.

If you look at the side of the bottle there is marks of measurement. When full, it fills 20L. 20L = 5.28344 Gal.

Depends on where you are located. I'm in NW. Indiana with a pool of 25,000 gal. They recommended a 250,000 btu for my pool but in doing research it was said that you can not buy too small. I installed outdoors and am very happy with the results. I can increase pool temp. by atleast 1 degree an hour and can maintain with a short burst daily. You probably should go with a 400,000 if I were you.

The previous answer is wrong. A gallon of propane weighs 4.2 pounds. This tank holds 11 pounds of propane, which is approximately 2.6 gallons. Standard 20 pound tanks hold 4.8 gallons.

My pond is only 60 gallons and it was pretty powerful for mine at 60. Not sure about 200 gallon though.

General rule of thumb is 30 BTUs per square foot. This can change by some other factors up or down.

It was enough to cycle my 100 gallon tank with about 1/2 inch left in the bottle, so 20 gallon no problem.

For a 20 gal aquarium I would use the 100. The 150 is what I use on a 45 gal which is more than enough. These filters are good and have not had any problems with them. The only reason I replaced my filter was for the slight upgrade and I just changed my whole aquarium system.

20 lb tank of propane holds approx 4 gallons of propane (approx 366000 BTUs) so you can figure on about 10 hours from a tank (heater is rated at 35,000 BTUs) ..as a rule, keep a full second tank availableI have a two-car garage and it heats it up nice and toasty - but I only use it for car repairs in the winter (maybe 2- 3 hours at a time). As mentioned, it is a bit noisy, but nothing super offensive. Also, always remember to leave a door or window open for ventilation when using a propane (or any kind of fossil-fuel) heater -
