Bigdog:

I realize the scale is dramatically different in my case but for comparative purposes:

I have a 1400 sq ft Energy Star Rated home. We keep our thermostat at 66 day / 62 night.

During December I have averaged 2 gallons per day of propane usage.

My only other gas appliances are an on demand water heater and fireplace.

I will state that running the fireplace for a 2-3 hours in the evening consumes an almost equitable amount of propane as a full days usage for the furnace.

I have never noticed any icing on my propane tank or regulator.

Hope this helps somewhat.
