Thats about how far I put my heater in from the house to the pole barn ran 3/4 in. nat gas line to 3ft from heater than went to 1/2 line

They put it under ground. I Think it is a 1 inch or 1 1/2 inch line. It is a 3/4 flex line going into the furnace.Michael

I didn't do the installation myself, but I believe it is standard (?3/4 inch). I use a similar length of pipe in my installation. Check the Owner's instruction manual (available online), I suspect it may have that information.

Your building code will let you know if it's okay. Some states let you have a propane ventless but not natural gas and there's restrictions as to what room you may install the unit, as in not a bedroom. And yes a gas line is needed for the gas unit. I put in my line but I'm a building contractor, so unless you are handy you will need a plumber to install the line.

Dear J. Drinkwater, The BTU's of the 280KK is 50,000. Please let us know if we can be of any other assistance. TheBBQDepot

That would be a question best answered by the manufacturer. There are BTU rating differences between the two gasses and, for possible safety reasons, I would not be the best person to answer this question.

I use natural gas, and this model is 24,000 btu.Using the thermostat control helps regulate my usage. I use this as a secondary heating source.

It needs a gas line ran to the heater for a full time supply of nat. gas. Not a simple task.

My gas range has burners with 22,000 and 15,000 BTUs. On the 15,000 unit, the time to steam is about 3 or 4 minutes. On the 22,000 unit, the time is less. Of course, the flame adjustment also makes a difference on both.

If it is dual fuel you will need a 220 electrical line and a natural gas line... no 110 needed if you need the 220.

Yes. Just make sure the unit is configured for LP. Thes units can also work with natural gas but it is an either/or situation. A 30K BTU unit will burn through a 20 lb (grill size) tank in 2-3 days depending or demand. Good idea to test usage before you actually need it.

You need to find the max btu rating (i.e. 250,000btu) for the cooktop, and then compare it with the rating for this regulator, which is 140,000 btu. Word of advice: if you need to ask these questions, you might be better letting a professional size and install your system. Gas is nothing to play with, and an improperly sized regulator could mean big problems.

Feliciah04, Hose is about 5 feet long, and yes a longer one could be used; just be sure you use one that is designed for LP gas usage, with the proper hose and fittings, not just any hose. Hoses could be available at a camping store or a propane dealer. Hope this helps, Jim.

Hi you will need a 110 power cord, exhaust vent piping & a flexible gas line all based on the distance to the unit.

Patrick! I found it!!! Thanks you for asking about the hose length. It forced me to search. The hose is 35" long. Whew.

Please use the following formula to determine the required BTU's for your space. Take the cubic feet (Length x Width x Height) x .133 x the desired temperature increase= BTU's required. For example this 60,000 BTU heater would heat a 15,000 cubic foot area 30 degrees.

My longest distance is about 30 feet, have a refrigerator between the send and receive units , you would need to check the specs or other reviews.

How many gallons are you going to heat? What is the night time temp?The gas line connection is 1/2". I reduced down to 3/8" with 10 feet of line and a high demand regulator (140k btu) on a 100lb tank. Got everything at Tractor Supply. At first I used this on a 600gal Intex kiddy pool. When the outside temp was below 40f it took about 30 mins to go from 70f to 104f water temp . One 20lb tank would freeze up when I tried. I found a 100lb tank works way better.
