Hi,
It is a fixed tank of 60 pounds (but of course only filled to 80% of that value).
If I were heating with propane right now, I'd need to refill every 3 days. That would be a royal pain.
21499 btu's per pound but the furnace is at best 80% efficient.
21499 x .8 x 60 = 1031952 btu's for the tank sizre
1031952 x .8 = 825561 inside the RV.
Cost where I live would be about $19 per day.

Don,
We may be heading to Quartzite in January so I'm curious. What common size propane tanks (in pounds/tank and translated into BTU's/tank) do you have in your rig?
