Why do I need a 100 lb propane tank for the indoor gas heaters ?

Heater Shop FAQ - Our frequently asked questions about heate...
With the exception of the outdoorsman model which can run from a 20 lb tank, the indoor gas heaters require a 100 lb because of the speed at which the gas flows to the heater. The faster the propane flow the colder the propane gets (experience this by blowing air gently from your mouth to your hands, then blow some air as hard as you can into your hands - the faster moving air is colder than the slower moving air).

What should I do if I think I have a leak?

Brownsville Public Utilities Board - Customer Service - FAQ
Check the water meter for movement on the dial or leak indicator, also do a visual check of the connections at the water meter. If the dial or leak indicator shows movement, then shut off the main cutoff valve going into the residence (usually located right outside the house), leaving the water meter on. If the dial, or leak indicator still shows movement, the leak is outside the residence but on the owner side of the meter.
