12 years after the tank's (20LB tank) birth date the tank must be visually qualified. Then 5 years after that it needs to be requalified again. Dues anyone now what kind of check is required at the 17year mark and the qualification requirements their after?

Rod, Take it to your local gas&go and swap it out for a differant tank and let Amerigas(in this area)retest it and you are good to go for another 10 years or so. Also here in North Missouri Wal Mart will trade for a full tank. I think the price is $16.00. KJM

The current govt rules pretty much make them a throw-away after 12 years. Not worth the expense of testing - or tasting. ;)

17 yr. old tank wow. it will need a pressure test. around here that runs about 35-45 dollors then a new valve will have to be installed another 40 bucks so far you have 80-85 bucks in a 17 yr old tank I just bought 2 new tanks with the new valves for $50.00 hope this helps Jer
