Don't know if there is a connection here, but during the storm Sandy we boondocked for a couple nights. I ran the generator so that the battery would stay up to power the furnace. During the night both the generator and furnace quit. The propane tank was still partially full but covered in frost. I asked some propane folks about what happened. They said that probably the combination of drawing propane for both the furnace and the generator at the same time caused the propane in the tank to be depleted too rapidly and that froze the remainder of the propane in the tank. Since then we have not run both at the same time and have not had a repeat of the frozen propane.
