Propane tank recertification
The 30lb tanks in my 5th wheel need to be recertified or replaced. I have tried to locate a place that does recertification near me in SW PA but no luck. The propane suppliers don't offer the service ...

I thought I read there was a new ruling that the small tanks didn't need recertified for 12 years now. But a quick search didn't come up with anything... I know I read that somewhere recently...

DOT requirement has been recert 12 yrs after date of mfg. on propane cylinders 4#-40#
That recert requirement has been rewritten at 1st of year....10 yrs after date of mfg. but has NOT been released (it was and then pulled)
SO as for now it is still 12 yrs after date of mfg. as stamped on protective collar.
OP......
SW PA?
Lot of territory
Do you have a Suburban Propane Vendor?
My local Co-Op must not have got the word - Two weeks ago I had to get one re-certified that was 11 years old. $5 for a five year additional sticker good for 5 years. Got it at Ferrellgas.
They (DOT) rewrote the requirement to change recert date and change length of recerts.
They published/released new recert THEN PULLED it.
Typical govbernent ----now folks are confused. Is it still 12 yr or 10 yr after date of mfg.
