For first timers, you can't beat the price.

But, you have to live where they're availabe.

They don't have prices. I can buy 33# for $18 and change..... are
they close?







Do you deliver?

Yes, that is a 33# tank (their tank& product) delivered..... think
there's a little markup in the Lowe's and Home Depot folks???






It's an energy product...one expects to get ripped off.

I'm still wondering why Weber suggested I *don't* have my 500 gallon
tank connected to my grill. It's probably a two hour plumber's call.

Virtually all manufacturers make such recommendations. It's mostly
nonsense and you could do it yourself.... Totally NOT rocket
science...


Uh, I'd prefer to pay a licensed plumber. Our propane dealer recommended
the plumber I've used previously. But I haven't decided whether to have
it done.

For first timers, I got a full, new tank, 17lbs, for $10. But, I think they've
stopped that. Now it'll run me about $22 for a 17lb tank, but they drop it on my
front porch or back deck. I could get it somewhat cheaper, but I'd have to drive
somewhere to get it.

Until some psycho opens the valve, lays it on its side in front of
your door, and kills you while you eat lunch.

If you open the valve of any modern propane tank, nothing happens. You
need the regulator plugged in to depress the safety valve in the valve
body.


How did that come about? Gov't regulation? Hmm... just asking.



No no no...the gas industry self-regulated itself. That's how all
safeguards come about, don't you know? :)


You don't know much about the cost of acquiring customers do you.
Killing off your customer base isn't good for your bottom line.

I sure hope he is a union plumber. I wouldn't want a scab stepping onto
your landlord's property.

Sorry, Bertie-Birther, but your post doesn't respond to the rhetorical
question.

Sounds like you think propane canister use has dropped due to enhanced
safety. Bizarre.

You're right, Gene. My brother has a nice grill hooked up to his 1000
gal heating tank., he never runs out of propane and always has
outstanding pressure. Did it all himself btw.
