Well done! I will say, being small tank free is... freeing. never having to worry about if your tank is full enough or not.

LP for hot water and secondary heat or fast ramps with the heat pump. Wife and I use so little gas, it turns out LP is not some kind of nasty choice when living a little stickish. I got real sick of the two tank tango.

Thats why you need to run a three tank set up --- when your last tank gets down to half, fill the other two. I just went and filled my two tanks last week even tho my last tank was still at ~3/4+ full --- probably good thru Easter now.... Only cost $23 to fill both tanks too!

the great thing about the small tanks is you can get them filled on short notice.....the big tanks where the truck has to come to you....you might be waiting with a raw wiener.......

Good job. I paid a contractor $5200 for natural gas to run under our Lake Tapps home to a BBQ..Inground spa and a firepit. That was in 2007.

Nice Job Pablo, now you can do the "No Tank Tango" in the LR in your underwear. I would keep those little tank around full though, just in case you lose track of that 500 Gallon Tank.

I opened this thread expecting to see one of you had built a bbq on porta potty tanks. Super disappointed, I'm leaving now. BTW real men use charcoal. (launches grenade in the room and slips out while chaos ensues).

Let him among us who has not woken up to an empty propane tank cast the first stone. Yondering wrote: I opened this thread expecting to see one of you had built a bbq on porta potty tanks.
