LP portable tanks are VISUALLY recertified for 5 years at propane dealers. My guy does it for free when refilling. They use 20 lb tanks for cost savings since they offer an upgrade to 30 lb. As for the 20's....the fed regulation says no more then 17 lbs in them now because of issues with the OPD floats. That's why the exchanges have gone to 15 lbs. There is no lower fill requirement on the 30's. This per 2 LP dealers and my county health dept that does weights and measures
Are you saying that the 80% fill limit is not mandatory on 30# tanks?
