Guys the reason you can’t store propane tanks inside is because houses are warmer than it is outside and when propane tanks are filled outside all the way up and then go inside where it’s warm the gas expands from the heat difference and will start shooting out the bleeder inside your home.

On Step 6: Maybe step away from the car before calling 9-1-1.

ATG suggests, if you want a hybrid system, get what I got around the home to cook & eat the home.
My uncle mod & ran the spiral metal duct pipe out of the home (chimney filled with hot heat). If we need more heat we open the front door. And while you are cooking it will fill the home with chef's homemade cuisine smell.
Sometime it get so hot inside the home that we open doors & windows.
Real smoked cuisine that neighbors, friends & drive by willing to buy.

ATG/Masterbuilt MES130S: comes solid or window. We preferred the window.

Can we store a tank that is almost empty in our garage for the Winter?

I work in the LP business. Don’t call the fire department if purges in vehicle. Just open the doors for 4 mins. with fans running and let FD fight fires and save your time! 👍

Safety is always a good idea. Do not do what an idot has posted on realrockhounding.com. His post is about refilling 1 pound disposable propane bottles. That is unsafe and illegal to transport.

Other is pronounced "uhther." The announcer said "ehther" at least twice.

if you are silly enough to leave tank in car and you come back and smell it DON'T CALL THE FIRE DEPATMENT !!!
Just open the doors immediately (fire dept. has REAL issues to deal with )
