Most RV gas appliances are operated intermittently, and each has a dierent BTU rating.
You will need to consider this when planning your propane supply and consumption. Un-
less there is heavy use of hot water, the water heater consumption of propane is minimal.
During cool temperature or high wind conditions, furnace consumption can be extremely
high.
To calculate your propane supply, take the BTU ratings for your propane appliances and
divide that into the BTU availability. Each gallon of propane gas (3.785 liters) produces
about 91,500 BTU’s (96,528 kilojoules) of heat energy.
The following chart provides average propane consumption information.
