500 Pound Propane Tank Heater Solutions

Powerblanket 500-pound propane tank heaters optimize container pressure and enhance tank efficiency. Furthermore, these heaters are designed to provide consistent heat for gas tanks, making them more effective and longer-lasting. As a result, with Powerblanket propane tank heaters, you can save time, reduce hassle, and lower costs by maintaining critical temperatures effortlessly. However, cold weather can severely impact propane tanks and other gas cylinders. Low temperatures make it difficult to sustain the necessary pressure for propane vaporization, rendering your tank unusable.

These products are suitable for propane, butane, nitrogen, oxygen, and other compressed gases.

    We live in Quebec Canada. We have winter that usually goes to -20F and we have seen -35F . So since we are using only propane for heating and did not know that below -42 the propane does not evaporate anymore. we decided to buy a Powerblanket for our 420lb tank in 2018 just to be safe. Last year (2018-2019) we had a very long and cold winter. We had a contract (2018-2019) for propane that was $130 per month for 12 months based on our 2017 usage We did have a very cold winter that did reach quite a few -30 to -36. We renew our contract in august and to our surprise, the contract for 2019-2020 is now $75 per month for 12 months based on the 2018 usage. Colder winter with less usage. We did not expected to be that good, but it is.
