01

Propane Tank Installation

We begin by excavating and preparing the installation site, ensuring proper clearances from your home, property lines, and other structures. Next, we carefully position and level your tank using specialized equipment, then connect all supply lines with professional-grade fittings and materials. Underground lines are installed in protective conduit at proper depths, while above-ground connections prioritize safety clearances and weather protection. Every connection is pressure-tested and leak-checked before we activate your system.

Comprehensive Site Evaluation

Every successful propane installation begins with thorough site assessment conducted by our experienced technicians. We evaluate your property's layout, existing utilities, local building codes, and safety requirements to determine optimal tank placement that maximizes safety while ensuring convenient access for future deliveries and maintenance.

Tank Size Optimization

Selecting the appropriate tank size requires careful analysis of your home's propane consumption patterns, appliance inventory, and future expansion plans. Our technicians calculate heating requirements, hot water usage, cooking needs, and any additional propane applications to recommend tank sizes that provide adequate capacity without unnecessary expense. We consider seasonal usage variations common in Missouri's climate, ensuring your tank capacity matches your family's year-round needs.
