We have a 500 gallon propane tank to support our 22 KW Generac 1800 sq ft house. They only fill the tank to 80% to allow for gas expansion in the summer heat. All propane tanks are at their full level at 80%...summer, winter, fall or springtime. It is even a good idea to maybe fill tanks at 60 to 70% during the hottest months of the summer because of the heat and the expansion inside those tanks as the summer sun shines down on them .The relief valves are set to release gas pressure at 250 lbs.

Would a canopy help?
Now the next question.
Generacs are 10 month delivery.
Anyone have a recommendation of another 12K unit that I should look at?

You know I actually thought about it.
Thinking of what I could charge for power for the next storm.
