With this above ground propane tank for sale, you can save installation time and costs compared to underground models. The underground tank requires professionals to excavate your lawn. There’s also the risk of “floating,” meaning that the tank could shift under the ground if it’s not completely settled on a sturdy foundation. Above ground tanks stand several inches off the ground and are safer for flooding conditions. Propane Tank For Sale

Propane stores well, clean-burning, and is easy to refill. Simply lift the lid on the propane tank, and check the gauge inside. The best time to call your propane dealer for a refill is when it’s at 20-30 percent full. Propane is odorless, but an odorant is added to it so that it will give off a smell if it’s leaking.  If you have questions about the operation of your appliance or gas systems, contact us. Never allow your gas container to be filled above the maximum safe level. A regulator is required for use to reduce the pressure of the tank to the working, usable pressure.
