Underground Propane Tank Benefits
Many homeowners consider appearance when deciding between above-ground and underground propane tanks. An above-ground tank takes up space and can be an eyesore, while underground tanks save space and don’t affect the look of your landscaping.
Most property owners make the decision of whether to choose above-ground or underground installation based on their finances and available space. Those with a larger property may have no problem finding an unobtrusive spot for an above-ground propane tank, but many residential property owners have less space to work with and prefer to have their propane tank out of sight. The important thing is that your propane tank will be there to act as a fuel source for your standby generator when you need it.
Rack Electric is pleased to provide underground propane tank installation services in the Palm Beach County area of South Florida. Here’s how our fast and efficient installation process works:
Underground Tank Installation Process
Excavation is the first stage in establishing an underground propane tank. Your propane gas provider will plan out a location in your backyard where the propane storage tank will be located and will not affect other utilities in your house. The underground propane storage tank must be positioned at least 10 feet from your residence (and any outside appliances) and 10 feet from the property’s edge.
When installing your tank, we follow all safety rules and regulations to guarantee it is not compromised and is not in danger of leaking. This includes the following:
- Making certain that the foundation is solid and leveled.
- Properly fastening the container to avoid movement or "tank floating"
- The hole is filled up with soil that is devoid of pebbles and other abrasives
- 1 inch or more of soil has been placed around the container
After the tank has been fitted and connected, a dome will be installed to cover the valve and connections that protrude from the ground.
At Rack Electric, our underground propane tank installation services are fast, efficient, and leave you ready for the next hurricane or power outage! Boca Raton, Deerfield Beach, West Palm Beach, Boynton Beach, and Delray Beach are just a few cities Rack Electric serves in our large South Florida service region.
Rules & Regulations Surrounding Underground Tank Installation in Boca Raton
The laws that surround underground propane tank installation in Boca Raton are so multi-faceted that there would simply be too much to state on this page. However, we can provide you with the simple guidelines that coincide with the size of your tank for underground installation.
There are generally two sizes that most Florida residents go for in terms of underground propane tanks. They include 120 gallon and 250 gallon tanks.
If you intend on having a 120 gallon tank installed on your property, the requirements that need to be fulfilled include having a hole that needs to be dug 30 inches deep, 30 inches wide, and 6 feet long. If you have a larger property (typically a commercial property) you may instead want a 250 gallon tank, to which you will need space that’s adequate enough to dig a hole that’s 4 feet deep, 4 feet wide, and 8 feet long.
Before you even decide to have a standby generator installed, you should look around your grounds to see where it can possibly be installed. More so, you should also check to see if you have enough substantial space for an underground propane tank. If you have any issues finding such areas or you’re unsure if the space you’ve found is adequate enough, don’t hesitate at all in contacting Rack Electric for their professional opinion. Our team will be able to tell you if you have the right space for underground propane tank installation in Boca Raton.
