Re: LP lines on house Freezing
When I change over to my own and kicked the gas company to the curb I had to install both the tanks and the regulator (they insisted they owned the regulator also).
I redid the setup this morning making sure the vents were facing down and for now covered over it with plastic to keep water off it, guess well see if that cures the problem
Hi Bond-o, that's kinda what I used to do with my air lines on my tractors, I wish I could get some methanol injected into the tanks, but I get them filled at the local hardware store. Maybe when the next one empties out I will rig something up a connection to my vacuum pump to evacuate out the tank myself. Bring it down like an A/C system to 500 micron and boil out any moisture in there , then have it suck up a few cc's of methanol before I have it charged.
Did you replace the regulator after the tanks were changed?
If not, I wonder why this suddenly happened now, after all this time?
