How hot does a roofing torch get?

In terms of clothing, anyone handling a roofing torch should be wearing gloves, boots, and goggles at the very least. Long trousers are recommended – even better if they're flame retardant. A propane blow torch can get as hot as 1,995°C at the very hottest part of the flame.

Do I need a regulator for my propane torch?

The regulator controls the gas flow from the tank's valve to the torch. It also acts as a barrier between the torch and the high pressure of the tank. Without the regulator or with an improperly functioning regulator the gas tank and torch are serious safety hazards.
