Can this be used w/ a ProCom Blue Flame Vent-Free Wall Heater - 30,000 BTU. I have a large outdoor propane tank attached to the water heater &amp; furnace

I am no expert on these but have bought and installed a couple of them for myself. This is actually a regulator/tank switch set that is made for an installation with 2 tanks, and will switch automatically to the full tank when the selected one is used up (if both tanks have their top valves opened). If you only have one tank, you need a simpler (and cheaper) regulator setup (travel trailers usually have 2 tanks). You can probably use it, but do not need the switching capabilities with only one tank. Hope this helps......

Yes if the valve in back of heater is set to LPG instead of NG(Natural Gas), Propane can be used.

I would like to use the larger size propane tank with this grill. Is it safet to do that and were could I buy a supply line to connect the two?

no. this is designed for propane only. At least that is what the manual said.

I am assuming you are asking if you can hook this line up to your home propane tank in order to run a grill. I would say yes if you have a licensed plumper to run a hard line away from the tank with the proper fittings.

Sorry, I am not familiar with the Propane Unit. I can tell you that it tightly fits the regular Masterbuilt. It is really too tight and too long. But it is very heavy, so I use it. The others would not survive outside.

I have used a propane grill without problems. Not an engineer to calculate flow rate. I would suggest you contact the manufacturer at info@camco.net

As long as the connector(s) are the same - it should work no problem. I believe propane threading/connectors are universal, so you should be ok. But Im not an expert. The only other caveat is that when using this pit at its highest setting you may go thru the smaller tank quickly. Ive only used my pit for maybe 30 min - 45 min at a time (on my patio) and I switch the tank between this and my grill all the time - so I cannot give accurate info on how long a 5# tank would last at full flame - but I have only refilled my 20# tank twice since I bought this nearly 2 years ago. From a standpoint of quality, its awesome. This thing is a tank and has lasted great so far. As long as the connector(s) are the same - it should work no problem.

I do not think it will matter. So long as you have the proper connection, it should be fine. The only thing that might be different is how far you can place the tank from the burner. The hose angle might eat up some of the distance you would otherwise get if the connection was lower.

NO !!! 1st its not safe to keep a 20-lb propane tank inside your house. If it were to leak or some other way vent the propane into your house it would blow your house apart if it ignited. Second it is more expensive to run than natural gas or bulk propane in a giant outdoor tank. Better to use something like this inside if you have to.ProCom Recon Dual Fuel Vent-Free Infrared Heater - 20,000 BTU, Model# MD3TPF

The valve on this tank is identical to a 20 lb propane tank typically used with gas grills - right hand thread. I think the other end of your connector hose would need to connect to a "POL fitting with a left hand thread".

If it uses a standard propane tank (like the ones you can exchange at places like CVS, etc.) then yes. I used mind on an outdoor fire pit/table. Worked great and have not had any issues with connection, leaks, etc.

I have this hooked to my house natural gas. It produces a great deal of heat with a significant gas flow. Although I haven't tried it with Propane I would guess a 20lb tank would be inadequate for the type of gas flow and heat produced.

I wouldn't because this one puts off more propane fumes. For that I would use a Mr. Heater. It is a radiant heater with almost no fumes.

My husband is in the process of getting this hooked up. We purchased the transfer switch so it is a little more involved. Our hope was to run a hook up from our 500 gal tank but some of his coworkers (hospital maintenance workers) said there could be an issue with pressure from our large home propane tank so they referred him to our propane supplier. You might want to call your company and speak with an expert. We haven't made the call yet.

The hose will work for that except a propane and natural gas have different size venturis that the gas flows through so you need to also convert your venturi. I think it has something to do with the air to gas mixure being different between both fuels. So even though you use the hose will interchange, you will be disappointed with ability of the burner without changing the ventri also.

My heater is hooked up to propane but the installer should have checked for leaks at the time it was hooked up. Surely they used the correct connector piece for ng. This model can use either one but has to be connected up properly with the correct connector piece. I would call them back. If you did not have a professional hook it up, you need to get one there ASAP to be sure you are safe. I have purchased 3 of the ProCom Vent-Free heaters over the years for different locations in the house and never had a problem but they were installed by professionals because safety is always #1 for my family and myself. My advise is to contact your professional installer to be sure you are safe. My heater is hooked up to propane but the installer should have checked for leaks at the time it was hooked up.
