Propane stores well, is clean-burning, and is easy to refill. Simply lift the lid on the propane tank, and check the gauge inside. The best time to call your propane dealer for a refill is when it’s at 20-30 percent full. Propane is odorless, but an odorant is added to it so that it will give off a smell if it’s leaking.  If you have questions about the operation of your appliance or gas systems, contact your local gas dealer. Never allow your gas container to be filled above the maximum safe level. A regulator is required for use to reduce the pressure of the tank to the working, usable pressure.

In today’s world, everyone is looking to be more fuel efficient due to the raising fuel prices and the threat to our environment. Having high-efficiency appliances running in your home is not only going to save you money every month on fuel costs, but it will also provide for a better world in the future.

Advantages

Appearance:
Underground propane tanks are  landscape-friendly and won’t mess up your lawn’s appearance. At most, you’ll need to plant some new grass. Many homeowners find an above ground tank an eyesore that can potentially decrease your property values. The only thing you’ll have to get used to is a small “collar” sticking up in your yard and remember not to place anything on top of the area where the tank is.
Harsh Weather Is Not A Factor:
An underground tank will deal with extreme temperatures much better than its above ground counterparts. Since there is earth and soil surrounding them, there is less chance of drastic weather changes affecting or disrupting your tank. Also, during the winter time, underground tanks will receive warmth from the earth.
Safety:
Underground tanks are typically safer than above ground tanks because they are never exposed to any outside elements. They are also installed with anode bags to protect it from the natural electrical currents sent through the Earth. If for some reason there is a gas leak in an underground propane tank, the gas will remain in the soil underneath the ground, ensuring that the fuel will not harm the local soil or water.
Increases Home Value:
Some homes will increase in value with the addition of an underground propane tank. More and more homes are seeing the benefit of switching to propane as a whole-home heating source. Also, underground propane tanks don’t provide an eye-sore for vehicles driving by.

All of these are great high-efficiency products that will benefit your home and your pocket. Here is some more information on all of these appliances:

Delivery To Underground Propane Tanks

Delivering to underground propane tanks requires a little more knowledge of the consumer’s property.  With our experience and advanced technology system, we have no problem! Our drivers locate the underground tank by identifying the “collar” of the tank sticking out of the ground. They pull the hose up to the tank location, kneel down, open the collar to expose the fill pipe, and fill the tank. Because underground tanks are usually larger, you can expect the fill process to take a bit longer.
 
It’s important to have the collar clearly marked and cleared of all snow for our drivers during harsh weather. We do our best to clear the inside of the collar of all leaves, but drivers do appreciate it when customers lend a helping hand with this.

Installation Of Underground Propane Tanks

If you have decided that an underground propane tank is the right choice for your home or business, you should know what to expect when it comes to installing it.
After determining what size propane tank you need and what it will be used for, Great Valley Propane will take over. Here are the things we plan for:

All propane tanks must meet certain NFPA 58 codes and be placed the required distance from windows, doors, ignition sources, and property lines.
The ground above the tank must remain open.
The hole must be deep enough to accommodate the tank, plus an additional foot of dirt on top of the tank to ensure proper insulation and compliance with code.
Anode bags are placed around the tank before it is put into place to protect it from the naturally occurring electrical current in the soil, known as electrolysis.
Propane lines will be run underground in trenches that are dug by our team and connected.
Great Valley Propane will rake and seed your yard to ensure your yard will return to how it looked prior to the install.
After completion, all new propane tanks will receive a pressure and leak check to make sure everything is in functioning order.

We offer stand-alone 500-gallon propane tanks
Maybe you aren’t sure if you need a 500-gallon tank or another size. If so, here are a few tips for you: ​
Make sure to consider several factors that influence how long a tankful of propane lasts: ​
 
First, what are you using the tank for? If you are using propane only to heat your home, it will last longer than if you are using it for heat, plus power to appliances.
Second, how big is your home? A bigger home requires more energy to heat, and therefore, uses propane more quickly.
Third, how efficient is your home? Homes that are well insulated and have quality windows and doors require much less heat energy since they lose heat to the outdoors.​
In the end, know this: ​
An average home furnace burns 500-1,200 gallons of propane per year. An average homeowner uses between 200-300 gallons of propane per year for hot water. ​
That means that if you have an average-sized family, live in a moderately sized house, and use propane for heating and hot water a 500-gallon tank is perfect for you! ​
It is important to remember that your tank must be installed and hooked up according to state and federal codes and regulations.  For your safety, please make sure you select a reputable installer.
 

500 Gallon Propane Tank

Dimensions: 9′ 11″ long and 37.5″ in diameter
Uses: Primarily used for home heating or homes with 2-3 propane appliances such as supplemental or space heaters, hot water heaters, and generators.
A 500-gallon propane tank holds 400 gallons of propane when full.
So you’ve decided to ditch the electric heat system and go with the cleaner, more efficient alternative: propane. One of the first things you’ll need to know when making the switch is: what about propane tanks? What propane tank sizes are available and what size will I need to meet my propane supply needs?
First, what is a propane tank and why do you need one? A propane tank is a storage container where the propane you’ll need for your heating system or other gas-powered appliances is kept. Storage tanks are generally designed to hold a month’s worth of propane, so tank sizes vary depending on the size of one’s home and one’s monthly propane usage.
Propane tanks come in a variety of sizes; more common ones include the 120-, 250-, 330-, and 500-gallon tanks. They come in horizontal or vertical configurations, though many of the sizes over 120 gallons are available only in horizontal forms. Above- and below-ground, installation can be chosen.
A 500-gallon horizontal propane tank is best for smaller homes that rely on propane gas to power entire home heating systems or various appliances, such as stoves, water heaters, fireplaces, and even outdoor lighting. The most common of residential propane tanks, the 500-gallon unit is recommended for homes at least 2,500 square feet.
Read on to get more details about the uses and benefits of a 500-gallon propane storage tank and decide if this is the best choice for your home and propane needs.
Uses
As discussed, the use of a 500-gallon horizontal propane tank is to store the propane needed to power one’s home. This tank size is also used by many small commercial businesses that rely on propane for heating, lighting, alternate heating, and hot water; commercial cooking establishments might turn to propane to power their stoves. The 500-gallon tank can also be utilized for agricultural purposes, such as tobacco curing, dry cleaning, or peanut drying.
If your home has a central heating system, the 500-gallon horizontal propane tank is most commonly recommended. When filled to 80 percent (accounting for expansion, propane tanks are only filled at 80 percent), the 500-gallon tank holds 400 gallons of propane.
Basically, you will need to calculate how much propane you will use on a monthly basis when determining the required tank size. If you’re running a furnace, fireplace, hot water heater, clothes dryer, and possibly more, you’ll likely go with the 500-gallon tank.
Recommended Locations
Your propane storage tank is required to be ten feet from the propane line and a minimum of ten feet from a home or building.
underground installation options are available for the 500-gallon horizontal propane tank. To meet strict regulatory guidelines, it is recommended that homeowners and business owners utilize licensed technicians from a propane supply company to handle the installation of a storage tank, particularly for underground models.
Wherever a tank is installed, it should always be easily accessible for propane delivery trucks. Locked fences, too much shrubbery, and a blocked driveway are all obstacles that make it difficult or even impossible for delivery drivers to complete a propane delivery.
Benefits
Perhaps the top benefit of choosing a 500-gallon propane storage tank is savings: by choosing a larger tank, you’ll be able to accept delivery of more propane in one trip. A lower price rate for buying propane in large quantities could apply, saving you money over the course of a year.
With this tank size, you’re also assured of having the amount of propane you need between deliveries, so there’s much less of a chance you’ll run out when you need your propane supply the most. It’s not fun to run out of your power supply for your home heating system in the middle of the night during a bone-chilling cold spell.
The horizontal configuration also works well if you choose to have the tank installed aboveground; the lower unit could be more inconspicuous than a vertical tank.

Of all the residential propane tank sizes, the 500-gallon propane tank is the most common one. When the winter weather hits, you should at least have an idea of how long a 500-gallon propane tank lasts for a house.
Here’s the deal:
A 500-gallon propane tank can last anywhere from 1 month and 23 days to 14 months and 4 days. For the exact time, check the chart and graph for different sizes of homes further on.

500-gallon tank is a residential propane tank for houses. It can be installed underground, in the basement, or even in a large garage.
An average US household consumes about 750 gallons of propane per winter. That means an average US household will need about 2 full fills of a 500-gallon propane tank per winter (a 500-gallon tank holds a maximum of 400 gallons of propane; the 80% safety rule).

On average, a US household will burn through 750 gallons of propane every winter. Data Source: US Energy Information Administration
We will have a closer look at the lifetime of a 500-gallon tank. This will enable us to more precisely figure out how long will 500 gallons of propane last in houses with square footage ranging from 500 sq ft to 4,000 sq ft.
To figure out exactly how long does a 500-gallon propane tank for your house, we need to take into account these key parameters:

Size of your house. Bigger houses require more heating; a 500-gallon propane tank will run out sooner than in the case of smaller houses.

Heating requirements (location). Houses in the North US require higher BTU heating output than houses in the South US. Example: The 500-gallon propane tank will last longer in Texas than in Chicago.

How harsh is the winter? In harsh winters we will burn more propane than in mild winters. As we can see from the data for average US household winter consumption for the period from 2010 to 2016 above, the 2013-2014 winter was the harshest and we burned 830 gallons of propane on average vs. 750 gallons of propane on a standard winter.

The energy efficiency of your propane-powered heating devices. High energy-efficiency propane furnaces with above 90 AFUE ratings, for example, will spend less propane for the same heating output than 70 AFUE rating furnaces. That means a 500-gallon propane tank will last longer.

Now we know how many gallons of propane different size homes will, on average, burn throughout the winter. We can use this data to calculate how long will 500-gallon propane last:
How Long Does A 500-Gallon Propane Tank Last For Different Home Sizes

First of all, we need to figure out how many gallons of propane a 500-gallon propane tank actually hold. Instinctively we think it’s 500 gallons; it’s actually 400 gallons.
We only fill propane tanks up to 80% of their respective full volumetric capacity. That is done for safety reasons. If a propane tank is heated, the propane would expand and create pressure on the outer layers of the tank.
That means that a full 500-gallon tank holds 400 gallons of propane. Its totally energy content is 36,600,000 BTUs (100% efficiency).
Before we look at the table of how long will a 500-gallon tank last for different sizes of homes, let’s look at an example of how you can calculate that.
Example: How long does a 500-gallon propane tank last for a 1,500 sq ft house?
Based on average estimations, we know that a 1,500 sq ft will burn through 510 gallons of propane in 6 winter months. We also know that a full 500-gallon tank contains 400 gallons of propane. Here’s how we can calculate that:

510 gallons of propane will last for 6 months.
400 gallons (full 500-gallon tank) will last for how many months?

400 Gallons × 6 Months ÷ 510 Gallons = 4.706 Months
That means that a full 500-gallon propane tank will last for 4 months and 6 days in a 1,500 sq ft home.
We can use this principle to calculate after what time the 500-gallon tank will be empty for different home sizes:
