PROPANE TANK FEATURES

  • Propane tanks are environmentally friendly, require little maintenance, and can last up to 40 years.
  • Because propane is a non-toxic fuel that doesn’t contaminate aquifers or soil, large tanks can be safely buried underground.
  • Fuel comes from the tank as a vapor, not a liquid
