Before you can move on to get rid of your propane tank, you will need to make sure the tank is completely empty of any gas 😁 You can check this by slightly turning the knob on the burner on your gas grill 😎 If it isn’t empty, you will be able to smell gas. Light a match and wait for the grill to ignite. If the grill doesn’t ignite right away or you can’t smell the gas, do not repeatedly attempt to light it, as it can result in a dangerous fire. [1]

Natural gas, charcoal and electric have all seen their sales rise faster than natural gas. Only LP-gas is allowed to be used in gas grill tanks. Each tank is stamped with the date of manufacture. This indicates that it has reached its 12 year life expectancy. Many older tanks are not suitable for use and have been in service longer than 12 years. Some valves are not compatible with newer grills. The new Federal requirement, based on the National fire Protection Association standard 58(NFPA 58), prohibits tank filling without an Overfill Prevention Device (OPD). It became effective April 1, 2002. This federal standard was rejected by Connecticut’s State Legislature. Connecticut remains under the older version of NFPA 58. You can have your tank filled even though it doesn’t have an OPD. Most dealers and marketers are reluctant to fill tanks with OPDs due to liability.
