Propane has a heat content of 19,900 btu/lb net. This means that a 36000 btu/hr heater needs to burn 1.809 lbs of propane per hour to produce this amount of heat. A 40 lb bottle will last about 22 hours if the heater runs continuously.

Approximately 1/2lbs of propane an hour according to a number of specs I've seen while doing research on this. Most 10000btu heaters will run about 43hrs on a 20lbs tank.
