propane heater ???...would this work ???

[sarah t]

i have been looking for a heater and found these

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/2-BAR-PROPANE-GAS-SPACE-HEATER-REGULATOR-HOSE-CALOR-/400176841859?pt=UK_Home_Garden_Hearing_Cooling_Air&hash=item5d2c660483

does any one have any idea if i can use this with my torch .....i was thinking a two connector pipe thingy (is there such a thing ....like for running two torches  ?) going through the same regulator ...see how technical i am 

no idea if this is feasable as i have no knowledge of pressures required etc ...

someone tell me yea or nay and what bits i might need to achieve the dream of a warm shed pleeeeese........

add says it comes with a regulator so can i run two things off same bottle with different pressures...is this all getting to complicated

I run two torches of one bottle of propane. The regulator connects to the tanks, the flashback arrestor is next then a brass splitter connector which is shaped like a "Y" which changes one hose into two and then the torches. I would imagine (but please don't take my word for it without checking) that this heater would just connect to the splitter like my torches do?

What torch are you using?

HH uses a 4 bar regulator and while the theory of splitting the hose from the heater is sound the regulator for the HH would spit out to much gas for the heater and the heater regulator won't kick out enough for the HH to be used (icckle biddy 2cm flame)

I think someone mentioned that a minor doesn't need as much pressure but that would be something to check with someone that uses one of those torches.

in my head thats the picture i had  ...tuffnels sell a propane splitter ...its just if differnt pressures from the same tank works ...what do ya reckon?

it would solve so many problems for me if this was possible ...i have no electric in my shed and use an extension cable (in a pipe) so would free up a socket ...at the moment its heat or ventilation !!

i am using a nortal minor with the regulator tuffnels supplies

the heater comes with a regulator and pipe etc ...so with the kit from tuffnels ............

[ScarletLeonard]

Only one regulator on the bottle.

You have a bit of pipe come from the regulator then the splitter then two hoses.

Tuffers regulator will be 4 bar to much for the heater to handle

so could be done on a sepperate bottle but not the same one ......will have to look at space issues ...........
