500 gallon propane tanks are also used for commercial applications, such as heating, cooking, dry cleaning, and crop drying.

The tank is about 3′ 11 1/2″ tall and 9′ 10″ in length.

This 500 gal propane tank size is appropriate for most homes ranging from 2500 to 4500 square feet. It is the smallest tank size that metered systems for communities will be drawn from.

LP Propane offers a 500 gallon propane tank for sale at the best price.With this above ground propane tank for sale, you can save installation time and costs compared to underground models.

The underground tank requires professionals to excavate your lawn.

There’s also the risk of “floating,” meaning that the tank could shift under the ground if it’s not completely settled on a sturdy foundation.

Above ground tanks stand several inches off the ground and are safer for flooding conditions.
