I have a new fiver (see signature). After owning for about two weeks and about five nights camping , both 30lb bottles were empty. I wrote this off as selling dealer short filling the tanks and I do not smell propane anywhere. After a few weeks and 4 or five nights camping, I woke up this morning to no furnace and one empty bottle. I have an electric fireplace which I keep cranked up to minimize propane use. 2-30lb bottles usually last me an entire camping season so I suspect I have a small leak somewhere. I am going to spray all connections / fittings today with soapy water. There is definitely no propane odor any where so I am not concerned about fire hazard. If there is a leak, I'm confident it is small. I have H20 heater, furnace, fridge and two valved quick connect exterior fittings, as well as regulator and changeover valve at tanks to check.
Any other suggestions?
