How Do I Remove an Empty Cylinder From My Grill?

Here’s a step-by-step guide to safely removing and replacing the gas cylinder on your propane grill:

Turn off your grill.
Locate your propane cylinder; it may be behind a door (depending on how your grill is designed).
There are two basic parts of your grill that are important when changing a propane cylinder: the cylinder’s tank valve and the grill’s pressure regulator.
Before you disconnect the pressure regulator, make sure that the tank valve is closed (turn it all the way to the right).
Once the tank valve is closed, unscrew the threaded pressure regulator (turn it counterclockwise). It is now safe to remove the propane cylinder (on some propane grills, the tank is held on the barbecue by a restraining bolt or screw; loosen it to remove the tank).
To reconnect your propane tank, simply reverse the disconnection process—making sure that the tank valve is closed when you reconnect the pressure regulator. Replacement propane cylinders often come with a plastic safety cap over the tank valve assembly. Just remove this.

How to Safely Transport Cylinders

All cylinders must be transported in an upright position after they are filled. Cylinders should not be transported lying down.
Do not leave a filled tank inside your car for any length of time, especially in the summer.

What Should I Expect Once I Get Started?

Our trained representative evaluates each location prior to placement of a cabinet to make sure all national and local codes are met.
We take care of the reconditioning, the safety inspections, the inventory, the cabinets, the deliveries, the stocking and even the signage.
Our cylinders are filled, inspected, washed or freshly painted to ensure they not only look good, but are safe to use.
We have scheduled routes to save you the trouble of calling for deliveries, but you can always call us to let you know your inventory is running low and we will schedule a delivery.

It’s as Easy as 1, 2, 3!

Once you’re all set up, here’s what happens next:

The customer goes to your counter and asks for a gas grill cylinder.
Your clerk walks the customer to the exchange cabinet, verifies the valve type, exchanges the cylinder and returns to the counter to collect money from the customer.
The customer returns to the exchange cabinet and picks up the exchange cylinder.

We Design Propane Dispensing Stations, Too.

ProGas can also design a propane dispensing station while keeping all zoning, building, safety and training requirements in mind. We have installed many stations for companies that refill their own forklift cylinders, auto/truck engine fuel, temporary heat cylinders, hot-air balloons, and myriad other applications.
