[VAC] Re: LP Tanks

["Paul P. Waddell" <balloon@xxxxxxx>]

Red,

You do not have to dispose of the LP. What you can do is the following.
1.	From you local LP dealer, get a copper tube that has a 
	POL fitting (male) at each end.
2.	Screw one in to the old tank, the other to the new tank.
	(remember reverse treads)
3.	Open bleeder valve on the new tank, open main valve on new
	tank.
4.	Turn the old tank upside down. Open main valve on old tank.
5.	This will transfer the LP from the old tank to the new. 
6.	When the new tank starts to spit LP from the bleeder, turn off
	the main valve on new tank, then bleeder valve. Then turn off
	main valve on old tank.
Remeber, do not smoke, do not wear any man made materail clothes (Poloy,
Nylon,
etc..) anything that can cause a static discharge. 

Or, just take the old LP tanks to the dealer, see if they will give you
a credit
for the propane. If you have not worked with LP, go to a dealer.
