What is the propane capacity?

The 11 lb. propane tank holds a little less than 11 pounds of propane. Commercial propane weighs about 3.696 lbs per gallon, so an 11lb tank holds about 2.98 gallons of propane. The typical 20 pound tank holds somewhat less than 20 pounds. So figure that the little tank is roughly half the capacity of the larger ones. The tank I bought is still working well, and it can be refilled wherever propane tanks are refilled. Many places charge by the pound as well for refills, though I've seen some that would charge a flat $10 or $12 for a refill of the 11 pounder regardless of how empty it was.

I think it was about 50-80 gallons. You can call any local propane company and ask them how much a 100 pound tank will hold and they will know.

I wouldn't say no problems! Some places have a minimum amount they sell and it's 20 lbs. where I live in norther ca. 90% of the places that sell propane won't fill my tank because of that minimum. Unless you want to buy their minimum amount.

From the manual: Fuel Tank - 3.8 gal. (14.4 L) capacity fuel tank.We have been pleased with this unit; easy to start and enough power to run both of our furnaces in an emergency. I put wheels on it to facilitate moving it around. Darn good value.

I have several of these heaters installed at 5400 feet and they all work fine. As far as bottle size goes, propane has 91,000 btu/gallon and this heater is rated at 10,000 btu/hr, so it will operate on high for approximately 9 hours per gallon, or 45 hours on a 5 gallon bottle. Choose your bottle size according to your usage needs.

I have no idea, and would refer you to a heating (furnace) contractor, as they deal with both propane and natural gas, and would probably know the answer.

Yes, that is what size we used, and just got a regular propane tank from the hardware store. Works great!

Gallons are never referred to when discussing propane. I have never seen or heard of a 5 gal. tank for propane.

It is propane. Make sure to check on the specs on your paticular model. The It is propane, but check the specs for you particular model.

Cooking oil capacity is 6 liters for each tank. 12 liters total for both tanks together.

Yes, you should have no problems mechanically - the fill connections are the same. Remember that 80% of total rank capacity = "full", i.e. it will only take 5 lb of propane. % full = 100 x (GW - 11.1)/5 [propane is 4.4 lb/gal]

I returned this stove to Amazon's Seller due to safety concerns, its poor construction (in my opinion), and a total lack of documentation, such as no User Manual being provided. I never hooked up any propane source to the Stove, so I cannot answer your exact question.

I honestly have no idea. All I can attest to is that when we use this heater to complement our heating system, we have realized a significant savings in our use of propane.

The generator uses approximately one gallon of propane per hour. I'm not sure how much is used for the Weekly self-check.

Propane contains 91K BTUs per gallon. A 40K BTU heater thus uses about ½ gallon per hour. A 100# tank holds 23 gallons of propane. Thus about 52 hours of heat from a 100# cylinder (versus 10 hours on a 20 pounder). You often get a price break filling a 100# cylinder over the little grilling bottles. There can be pressure fluctuations when tanks get low thus larger tanks are better. Also, use a two-stage regulator for best results (e.g.; search amazon for ASIN B0024E6TX2).
