Propane Container
The container or "cylinder" is a D.O.T. approved container to hold propane in liquid form,
and is normally a 20# or 30# (9 or 14 kilograms) capacity. The open/close valve is to be
closed at all times unless hooked up to the propane system or filling the container. When
the container is disconnected from the hose, install the valve cover that is attached to the
container. This is required by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), other
applicable local codes and for your own safety. Do not allow the container (filled or empty)
to move or roll around while transporting to and from the filling location.
