Remember that as outside temperatures drop, the BTU value of the propane gas is lessened, since the
colder liquid propane in the tanks requires the heat from the surrounding air to vaporize. This lowering
of BTU value can significantly affect the performance of the system. You can help insure proper
performance by keeping the propane gas tank as full as possible in cold weather, and reviewing the
BTU/hr plates on propane gas appliances for proper propane management.
PROPANE GAS HOSES, PIPES, TUBES & FITTINGS
The hoses, pipes, tubes, and fittings used in the propane gas system are designed to withstand pressures
far exceeding those of the propane system. However, because environment and time can both contribute
to the deterioration of these components, they must be inspected for wear at regular intervals.
Be sure to inspect the hose before each season and when having the tank refilled. Look for signs of
deterioration such as cracks or loss of flexibility. If replacement of propane components is required, make
sure to always replace them with components of the same type and rating (check with your dealer) by a
qualified propane gas service technician.
