I noticed the term 20 gal and 20# used interchangeably. The LP cylinders which are used in BBQ's, etc are 20 lb cylinders. When full they have around 4.5 gals of propane in them, so If you're calculating the propane use of your heater and using one of the common LP tanks, you don't have 20 gallons available.
