Standard 20lb Tank
- A standard 20lb/5 gallon BBQ propane tank can be used for burner systems 180K BTUs and under
- The Canyonlands Fire Table is a complete unit that can have a self-contained propane tank
- Burn time varies from 6-12 hours, depending on how hot you run it
- Results may vary, and it is common for the fuel to “freeze up” with burners 180K BTUs and up. What that means is that after 45 minutes or so, the flame only goes to about half. Remedy this by having a second tank ready to go, or by using a larger tank.
40lb Tank
- This is a better option for most of our burners from 100K to 200k BTUs
- It will give you longer burn times
- Still relatively small and easy to move
High Volume Tanks
- Contact your local propane supplier
Hiding the Tank
- You can always run a larger diameter line and hide the tank in an inconspicuous location
- You can purchase propane tank covers by searching online
