How to Tell When Your Propane Tank Is Empty

Wondering if your propane tank is running low? No matter what you rely on propane for in your day-to-day life in North Texas, keeping an eye on your fuel levels is key to avoiding an unexpected run-out. Take the guessing game out of knowing when to place your next propane delivery by learning more about your tank and system.

How to Read Your Tank Gauge

The gauge on your propane tank is a small, round dial that is usually located under the dome lid of a large horizontal tank or near the valve on a vertical cylinder.

The gauge shows the percentage of propane remaining in your tank with 80% being considered “full” to allow room for gas expansion as temperatures fluctuate. This means that if your needle is pointing to 50, that means your propane tank is 50% full.

When to Place a Fuel Order

The experts at Kelly Propane & Fuel suggest our customers order a propane delivery when their tank gauge is right around 30%. This will help prevent a potential run-out while you wait for your delivery to arrive.
