ASK THE TEAM What should | know about propane tanks? From fuelling your barbecue to heating your house, propane is an important clean energy source for many people. As common as it is, there may still things you may not know. Size Since several factors determine the necessary tank size for your operation, a Fuel Team member at your Local Co-op will work with you to find the one for you. Storage Propane tanks should be stored outside in a well-ventilated space, not in an enclosed one. To keep ours functioning well it should also be kept at least 20% full and clear of snow or any other coverings. Keeping it clear will allow the sun to help heat it, but if it doesn't seem to be working, your Co-op can offer up solutions such as an approved electric tank heater or larger tank. Maintenance W components. Cylinders must have their valves changed every 10 years. Tanks under propane does not have an expiry date, there are regulations for the tanks and 2500 USWG must have their reliefs inspected by a trained professional every five years and changed every 25 years.
