LP Tank
The LP tank manufacturer is responsible for the materials,
workmanship and performance of the tank. If the tank has a
defect, malfunctions, or you have a question regarding the
tank, call the tank manufacturer's customer service center.
The phone number is on the warning decal which is
permanently attached to the tank. If the tank manufacturer
has not resolved the issue to your satisfaction, then call
