So tonight I dumped out 20 gallons of water, filled the tank slowly in one of the 2 ports, put the sensor in the other port as air was blowing out the hole. sensor read around 4500ppm. I duct taped a Empty 55 gallon bag to the second port, collected about 20 gallons of air and tied it off w...

yep!! Plan on it .

Looks like both of your replies could be correct. Looking at the Lel monitor indicates that it measures a variety of gases including oxygen, ammonia , propane, methane, natural gas, formaldehyde hydrogen sulfide ,carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide ,hydrogen and includes the word “etc”.. so no...

So I have a 250 Gallon propane tank and I am hoping to make my second smoker build with. The first one was about 150 gallons ,I finished that a couple years ago. I found this one a month ago, valves open and setting empty in a field. Filled it full to the rim of water and Dawn dish detergent...

Thanks for the good info and yes Thank you for the information, that was exactly what I was looking for. The amount of time it would take if the tank just sat open. I filled the tank full of water and dawn dish soap yesterday. It was windy outside and I filled it slowly over 5 hours as to keep...

thanks for thanks for the info. I’ll try it out. ive been experimenting a bit with the setup to determine if I’m going all in. I dumped 8-10 gallons of water in the tank. Moved it around a bit and pulled it back out. collected around5 gallons. I see the oils are at the top and have...

Thanks for the idea!! Thanks for the reply, sounds like that would work for the displaced air / gas that’s currently in the tank, Any thoughts on how bad the smells are from the water that is released during cutting ?

The pic shows the inside wood/coal tray pulled out. I have to line it with perforated stainless or something to hold the fuel inside. I picked up this piece from a scrapyard. It's s 1/4" steel for a ramp off a industrial trailer. Heavy!! Once locked in place the end plate won't be going anywhere.

Hello, thank you both for the replies. Yea.. it's still in the build stage. I have to cap the holes, figure out how to keep the grease out of the fire, more paint and some welding. Heavy, yes it sure is. The grates are 1.5" thick .... I thought about a fire box but in the end liked the thought...
