We are planning to add an above ground stationary propane tank (200 gal.) for heating/refrigeration/hot water in a trailer on our farm. I want to be able to refill a variety of bbq sized tanks from this--is that possible?|||DANGEROUS...check with your propane supplier.|||Do not try and do this! first of all liquid propane is extremely cold (-44 掳F) if you get it on your skin. Also you have no way of telling how much propane you transfer to the container. There has to be enough room in there for the propane to "grow" if outside air temperature increases. Add to that the fact that the cylinder does need to be inspected by a "qualified" person who knows what to look for and what is dangerous. There are way too many ways for you to hurt yourself or to damage your property to make this worth considering!|||It isn't that simple. You have to have a compressor and the correct valves, etc, etc. So, it may be possible, but the cost would outweigh any benefit.

Why not have the gas company run a line for the trailer? You could then just connect the trailer directly to the line and skip the tank altogether.|||Not a good thing to try propane is a very volitable gas and can explode from static electricity. Use the refill/replace cylinder drop off sites it is safer and you won't risk your home self or family. It may also be illegal to tamper with a sealed tank or refill tanks without a license.
