That's the only problem with propane. You really can't shop for

Is that state law? Sounds like restraint of trade to me. Someone

They passed the laws based on the pretense that they don't want to put
gas into unknown equipment. It's inaccurate to say you can't shop
around, you can but to switch you have to get the new folks to bring in
their own tanks and usually that either costs, or means a contract...
