30 lb Propane Tank
I was out for 74 days and thought it would be good to fill/top off the tanks. They were filled and topped off. One took 30 and the other 10.
Put the tanks back on the rack
That was two weeks ago. Opened both valves and set the automatic valve to the right.
Two days ago, no hot water. Tried the cook top, no gas. I went to the tanks and the auto valve showed red on both tanks. I checked the valves and the left tank was closed. Opened it and back to normal...I thought.
Took the empty to get it refilled. It felt heavy. I opened the valve...nothing. the fella at the gas station also thought the tank was heavy. He put it on his scale, balanced out for the tare weight and found 20+ pounds still in the tank. Opened the tank valve and nothing.
What's my problem? Defective valve? Stuck valve? What are my options? What can I do to check it out?
Thanks.
