CZinSC Posted August 6, 2010 Share Posted August 6, 2010 Title says it all. Got home from work, two nice burgers in the fridge ready to go, fired up the grill. Warmed it up, cleaned the grate from the last use, put the burgers down, went back inside. Came back out to flip, and grill is cold. There must have been just enough propane for about 3 mins. Had to pan fry the burgers....now the whole house smells! The really sucky thing is it wasn't a surprise. Last three times I used it, I kept telling the GF, I need to fill that tank, it must be low.

CZinSC Posted August 6, 2010 Author Share Posted August 6, 2010 What am I looking at on cost of a spare? Around here, SC, a refill from a place like Lowes is $19. No idea what a spare would cost or how much I should be paying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twodownzero Posted August 6, 2010 Share Posted August 6, 2010 Always have a spare on hand my friend. Better yet, switch over to natural gas and plumb it to the house. No propane at my house! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No idea what a spare would cost or how much I should be paying. Down here a full spare tank is anywhere from 35 to 50 bucks depending on where you buy it. I would imagine your Lowes would sell them in the low $40's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
h2osport Posted August 6, 2010 Share Posted August 6, 2010 Ordered my grill for natural gas. No propane tanks to change. Do not forsee running out of natural gas. Randy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
