I saw a sign once on the big propane tank next to ace in pahoa, said it was OPEN... Dunno, drove by people were filling tanks again, about 2 weeks ago. Maybe they were just selling off the remaining propane??? Shurg... didn't stop to ask.
Anyway, yeah my red headed step child technician told me!
I can tell you this...... I've gotten my propane from WHOEVER was selling it cheaper... for the last 5 years... And my $99.00 L5 eco-temp hot water heater is running just as good as it has since I got it. Maybe I got lucky? Doubtful...
More than likely it doesn't matter where you get propane as long as it's hooked up right, I do have newer tanks, that aren't all rusted out, I clean the ends of the threads and don't let them rust. So, I'd think, it's more than likely poorly maintained equipment than the quality of the gas, but... That's my three cent story! Also, I transport my tanks (2 five gallon type) in the trunk of my car, so, they the threads aren't all wet like it would be in a pickup truck. So no dirt and bugs, I only have two tanks and don't sit around full, they are both filled at the same time and hooked right back up.
