Myth
Carbon monoxide is heavier than air, so CO detectors should not be placed on the ceiling or high on the wall.
Fact
CO is slightly lighter than air. However, studies have shown no significant difference in measurements based on what height CO detectors are mounted. Different manufacturers recommend different mounting locations, and you should always follow the manufacturersโ recommendation.
CO has a molar mass of 28.0, and air has an average molar mass of 28.8. The difference is so slight that CO is found to evenly distribute itself indoors. It is worth mentioning that CO indoors is usually generated from incomplete combustion (heat source) and therefore traveling in a warm air stream. Warm air is more buoyant and does rise. Coupling this fact with the knowledge that CO is lighter than airโฆ

Your propane supply company should be able to do the work for you. I would connect to the 500 gal tank unless the length of the hose offsets the cost of the tanks you are talking about purchasing.
