Propane Tank Installation and Testing

We install & service almost anything that operates on propane gas.
After an initial phone call to evaluate your needs and requests we would schedule a visit to your home or business. There is no charge for this initial visit. For a new installation we need to consider tank size & placement.

Tank size is determined by 2 main factors:

1. How many gallons will be used/year.
2. Accessibility to the site.

Tanks range in size from 60 to 1000 gallons and can be installed above ground or underground. The smaller size tanks (60-120) can be installed right next to a structure. The larger tanks (250-1000) must be at least 10 feet from any structure. All tanks regardless of size must also be at least 10 ft from a source of ignition.

Last, but of most importance (especially to our drivers) is the distance the tank is located from where our delivery truck can safely park & deliver your propane. Our trucks have approximately 100 ft of delivery hose so we try to place the tanks within 75 ft of a safe parking location. The 25-ft allowance helps us deal with winter conditions, parked cars and other obstacles. We also understand that not everyone appreciates the beauty of a propane tank as much as we do, so we do our best to find a tank location that is both safe & as aesthetically pleasing as possible to you the customer.
