For safety reasons, regulations require us to fill propane tanks to a maximum of 80% capacity.

Winterizing isn't necessary for your propane equipment. Propane doesn't freeze until it reaches -44 degrees, so your system will operate normally throughout the winter months.

The right tank size depends on your specific propane needs. A 120–125 gallon tank works well for a water heater, fireplace, or a few small appliances. For small homes with multiple appliances and heating systems, you'll want 250–330 gallons. Larger homes, estates, commercial properties, or agricultural operations typically require a 500 gallon tank. We'll help you determine the appropriate size based on your home's square footage, the appliances you use, and your consumption patterns.

The cost of propane varies with the outdoor temperature. If the temperature drops, it will be somewhat pricier, whereas during the hotter months, it will cost less.
