For cooking/heating use I don't think tank size is a problem until you get
down to the BBQ (20#) tank size. I remember reading that at -20F a BBQ tank
wouldn't produce enough vapor pressure to run a stove but I suppose that
depends on what stove.
Even in northern Maine a lot of folks use 100# tanks for cooking and heating
and it gets to -30F there fairly regularly.
I suspect that the hourly usage of a large compressor would be more than a
stove which could lead to the tank freezing up but I think it'd have to be
really cold.

Is there some way to use the waste heat from the generator engine to
heat the LP tank? You probably wouldn't need to do it in the summer
though.
