i already ran in to this,
the pump jockey for the LP fill up at my favorite place, doesn't know the difference between portable cylinders and frame mounted tanks, and tried to convince me he could not fill my tank, that it was all 'tanks' not just portable cylinders, and he could not find the correct markings on my big frame tank
somebody for got to specify the difference, and these minimum wagers don't know the difference
i'm hoping the next time, the regular guy is there, and the might know the difference
maybe after the food trucks give them ^&* and they loose business
the boss will get on the stick and find out the truth
It isn't just the "minimum wagers", it is MOST people. How often do we see forum members talking about 20 or 30 pound "tanks", even though it has been explained many times that they are really NOT "tanks", they are "cylinders"?
Yes, I include myself in that "MOST". I certainly know better, but often, due to laziness or forgetfulness, I find myself saying (or typing) "tank". After all, it IS shorter, and only one syllable!
I will soon find out if the local Amerigas vendor is up to speed on this. I have a 20 lb. cylinder that is empty and outdated. I will be watching to see what happens when I take it in for refill.
