Why would anyone not want to replace them after 12 years? Propane is very volatile and unforgiving. Replace the tank(s) and forget re-certification!
My tanks are 45 years old and are as good as the day they were made.
Why do you suppose they placed restrictions on DOT propane tanks and not ASME tanks?
There are many different scenarios to this problem and it's impossible to cover them all with a blanket statement. So I will say this...if I can remove all risk associated with an old propane tank for $100 then I prefer that option. I hate risking my life and the life of my wife and grand kids over a stupid $100 propane tank.
