One thing to keep in mind on the recert, if you are going to Canada, they do not accept our recert. Also new tanks need to be recerted after 10 years now.

And last July, the c-store 30's had disappeared and only 20's were available. I'm sure there is more around but few and far between. Also, the "Blue Rhino" exchange tanks are filled to less than 80%, so keep that in mind when deciding on exchange or recert.
Thanks for that information regarding Canada. I live in the Northwest and Canada is a possibility in the near future.
My tanks are made in USA, Feb. 07.
