...Question:
How long will my Mr. Heater burn on a 20-lb propane cylinder?
Answer:
It will vary according to which Mr. Heater you own. The following is a breakdown of burn time on high fire for units that run on a 20-lb propane cylinder. Mr. Heater does not recommend using the following heaters on larger than 20-lb tanks:
•MH9B : 48 hours
•MH12T : 36 hours
•MH12C : 36 hours
•MH24T : 18 hours
•MH42T : 10 hour
