Propane Tanks
Its summer and summer is BBQ’s and camping, which means for many its time for propane as well. However we know propane isn’t just for our camp and BBQ needs it is also the fuel of choice for rural communities switching from Home Fuel Oil for their heating needs. Though we at Mannion’s are not in the Propane business some of our clients have been seeking information regarding proper usage of Propane tanks and as such we feel it’s worth posting some of the information we have found. We highly recommend that you review local laws and regulations available to you on line or through your Propane distributor.
Liquefied petroleum gas known was “LP gas or LPG”, was created by recovering evaporating fuel gases and compressing into a liquid for storage. Since that time Propane is readily used in home and camping cooking appliances, heating of homes and water, dryers, lighting and of course as an engine fuel. Since it is lighter than air it also has the added advantage of not having a negative effect to water tables or soil.

When we needed to upgrade our diesel fuel tanks, we turned to Mannion for advice. Despite working to a tight budget and an even tighter timeframe, Mannion were able to come up with a solution which not only brought our operation back up to code, but also almost doubled our reserve capacity. The knowledge, helpfulness and flexibility shown by Sean Mannion and his staff was impressive, and their follow-up service was first class.
