Storing the Liquid Propane Tank Safely
Whether you are between cross-country treks in your recreational vehicle or looking for a place to
keep the liquid propane tank to provide fuel for your outdoor grill, keep in mind some basic safety
rules about storing portable liquid propane tanks:
Do not store the tanks (whether full or empty) inside your home, the living area of an R.V., a garage,
basement or workshop. It is unlikely that liquid propane will leak from the tanks. If it should leak, the
fuel could be exposed to sparks from automobiles, power tools or other appliances. When storing or
transporting your LP tank, it must remain in an upright position. Never lay your LP tank down on its
side whether it is full or empty. Never store a spare tank under or near your grill.
valve on your liquid propane gas tank.
The best place to store a liquid propane tank is in a shady or protected spot outdoors, behind your
home or garage, or on a screened porch but where it is out of reach of children. Liquid propane will
not evaporate. It is in a strong, closed container. It will not loose any of its clean-burning heat content,
even if left outside year-round.
