Propane tanks are available in an assortment of sizes to accommodate the many different uses for this gas. There are many uses for propane such as heating residences, industrial, agricultural and commercial uses. Propane tanks are equipped with a check valve to monitor gas flow. If you notice low gas flow or propane leaks, you should check the valve because it may need to be reset. It is possible to reset the check valve on your grill yourself, which may save you money instead of calling a professional.
Step 1
Turn the valve to shut off the container. Unscrew the connection to disconnect the propane tank from where ever it is hooked up to.
