How to Fill Your Own Propane Tanks?

Everyone is looking for new ways to save money. One cost saving measure you should consider is learning how to fill your own propane tanks. For safety reasons, you should first inspect the propane tank closely for any kind of damage before you ever try to fill it. Things you should be looking out for are dents and rust damage anywhere on the tank. Also make sure to inspect the fitting and nozzle on the top of the tank for any damage as well. Now you should check to see if the tank has expired. The date the tank was made should be stamped some where on the top of the tank. Check this date. If it’s twelve years past this date, the tank is expired. Take your tank to a store to be exchanged for a new tank. Now you have to find the weight of the tank. Check the information that was stamped on the top of the tank near its date. It should tell you the weight the tank is when it’s empty. This number will be preceded by a “TW,” which stands for tank weight. Weigh the tank and subtract the tank weight to find out exactly how much propane is left in the tank. Now you must find out the maximum weight of propane you can add into the tank. This information should come after the letters, “WC.” Remember this number as well as how much propane is currently inside the tank when you go to have it filled. Your propane dispenser should have a chart to help you convert this number so you know how much to fill the tank. Lastly, you need to fill the tank. Simply go to a propane dispenser and connect the dispenser to your propane tank’s fitting. Twist the valve, and the tank will start filling with new propane. You should also make sure to twist the bleeder valve open. This way when the tank is full some liquid will spray out to alert you it’s full. Lastly, close the two valves. Following these steps, refilling your own propane tank is easy and a great way to save money.

Is there any way to pressurize a propane tank that is still full of propane but has lost its pressure?

If there is propane in the tank there will be pressue. It can't lose its pressure. If one has a propane tank that has "lost its pressure" even though there is propane in the tank, there is almost certainly a problem with the valve (assuming the individual attempting to use the tank knows how). There is an overfill valve inside the tank. It is a component entirely separate from the external valve that a user controls. Let a propane company sort it out. They're the experts, and they want you to come in so they can help. They live for stuff like this because they are professionals.
