Had a disaster night before last. About 2am went out to cook some tomiles. Lit the little grill. When I lit it, didn't look quite right. Then flames started coming out the bottom & then the back of the lid, big flames. Set a wast basket on fire, it was about 2 feet away. Beer cans started melting in a bucket about a foot away. Set the railing on fire & some of the uprights.
Luckily there was a hose that I could reach it with, Started to turn off the tank & it went off again. Lot more spraying & I felt safe reaching over to turn it off.
Never again will I have a tank that I can't reach easy.
The Regulator let go internally & full tank pressure was going to the burner
It was a Better Homes & Gardens stainless about 4 months old.
