I’ve yet to see a buried propane tank... and I’ve done a lot of UST work.

“I’ve yet to see a buried propane tank... and I’ve done a lot of UST work.”


Since they are underground — wait for it — you can’t see them!

All kidding aside buried propane tanks are quite common, I have one for example.

They are buried with a large ‘bag’ which is a sacrificial anode.

I’d say of the 40 houses in my subdivision there are at least 30 buried propane tanks.

Most above ground residential propane tanks here are leased - this means the tank can only be filled by the company you lease the tank from.

A buried tank is a tank that the home owner purchased and the home owner is free to purchase propane from any vendor.

Have a good weekend, FRiend!

I’ve seen them in the 1,000 gallon size but not 2500.
