Hi
I just started building my all grain system and I've run into a couple problems. please take a look at my pics Flickr: ramz7887's Photostream pictures are on the right side in a smaller box. Also some new pictures. Also have a CO/GAS (http://www.shopping.com/xPO-Nighthawk_Combo_Gas_co_Detector) detector and a fire extinguisher.
Well I put in a 3000cfm box fan in the window and another near the door pointed at the system. I had no problems with ventilation while having the top burner on for about 50 mins on full blast with a blue flame only. So the ventilation problems looks solved. The CO/GAS moniter read 0.
Everyones concern is the propane tanks inside and the use of turkey fryers. Most of the problems I've heard about them are people heating oil not water. When the oil spills or combusts it melts the hose and cause the tank to burst in flames. Another concern is the pooling of the propane if the tanks leask since they are stored inside. I leave the CO/GAS detector right next to the tanks during use and after. Of course the area will be clear of cluter and the flame would not be left un attended, but do you have any ideas on how to improve saftey then?
Thanks
