Purging New Propane Tanks and Propane Cylinders

Purging – Essential for New Propane Tanks!

When filling your new propane cylinder for the first time, it is different than filling a used tank.  When your new tank  arrives, be sure to read the manufacturer’s special “Purging Instructions” found on an adhesive label attached to the outside of the tank. Buy propane cylinder | propane tanks for sale
