Propane tanks come in different sizes. This is to meet the different needs for propane. The barbecue tank has 20 pounds and is portable. Another portable propane tank is that of 100 pounds which carries at least 23.6 gallons of propane. Can be used to cure dry walls during construction.
A 100-gallon propane tank is large enough and can be used at the fireplace to provide heat to the house. It has a gauge that tells you the amount of gas remaining. There is a 320-gallon underground propane tank that can be used for whole house heating or commercial cooking. It has a neck that is stuck above the ground and the neck is used to refill. A 500-gallon tank can be installed both underground or above the ground. There are some precautions when it comes to these though. They have to be installed 10 feet away from the property and also 10 feet away from any electrical source. Most propane shops install these tanks for free. The 1000-gallon tank is similar to the 500 only that it will serve you twice as long.
Finding propane shops and getting tanks installed could help you reduce the usage amount on your electricity bills.
