Propane heater

Just purchases a Mr Heater Big Buddy, and found you're not supposed to use larger than #20 bottles according to instruction pamphlet. Is there no way to hook into an existing line ?

  • There's your answers. I have both, but have yet to use the external supply feature big buddy.
  • I have the smaller Buddy heater which works on high pressure only. I removed the regulator from the heater and plumbed it into the low pressure line that feeds my cook-top. It works great.
  • The Big Buddy has a low pressure connection and also a high pressure connection, take your pick. Order the correct hose from Mr Heater.
