andy Posted January 30, 2008 Posted January 30, 2008 Where's the best place to get a tank filled? Quote
JeffP Posted January 30, 2008 Posted January 30, 2008 Not sure - but I'd think that homebrew supply places could do it, or welding places, etc. Quote
reefhut Posted January 30, 2008 Posted January 30, 2008 Co2 yep...any welding supply or brewplace. Quote
spectra Posted January 30, 2008 Posted January 30, 2008 Go to Quimby welding over in Portland. If you take 205 over to Lombard it is right after 82nd av. They are even open on sat. to. I deal with them for supplys for my shop and they are pretty easy to deal with. I know Patrick at SWF has used them. Quote
andy Posted January 30, 2008 Author Posted January 30, 2008 Right, but I was kind'a hoping for specific recommendations of places that are cheap, friendly, have an open box of donuts in the office... you know, the critical stuff Edit: Thanks, Spectra -- simultaneous posting bites me in the assets.

andy Posted January 30, 2008 Author Posted January 30, 2008 Oh, are they the guys who just swap out the tank for one of their filled ones? I think I may have heard of them a while ago... Quote
spectra Posted January 30, 2008 Posted January 30, 2008 Most of the Welding supply stores will just swap out the bottle. But if your bottle is old and out of date no you will need to buy a new one and go from there. In the weldinig industry most all tanks that are 4 foot and smaller are considered owner tanks. I buy a bottle the first time then just pay for the gas after that. When I run out they just bring me a filled one and swap it out. This way the stores can keep the newer bottles in the supply chain and weed out the ones that are going out of date. As for gas they have almost any kind you can think of in a small bottle like the CO2 I have oxygen and ac. plus also a small bottle of nitrogin that I use. Quote
mister crabs Posted January 30, 2008 Posted January 30, 2008 try ferrelgas or amerigas. usually they will swap out for you or fill them. thats where i always got my paintball tanks filled at. Quote
impur Posted January 30, 2008 Posted January 30, 2008 Yah they usually swap em out. But if you ask they'll just fill yours. I had a brand new tank never used just old and they swapped it for one that looked identical that was recently tested. Now they'll just refill it for me if i ask. Quote
