into the atmosphere. This is a hazardous
practice.

• To remove gas from LP tank, contact an LP
dealer or call a local fire department for
assistance. Check the telephone directory
under “Gas companies” for nearest certified
LP dealers.

LP Tank Exchange

• Many retailers that sell appliances offer you
the option of replacing your empty LP tanks
through an exchange service. Use only those
reputable exchange companies that inspect,
precision fill, test and certify their cylinders.
Exchange your tank only for an OPD safety
feature-equipped tank as described in the
