The only thing you want to be real careful of is how the propane migrates out of the tank. There are for instance 33 pound tanks used primarily on forklifts and other equipment where there's a pipe that draws liquid propane from the bottom of the tank as opposed to the type we customarily use where you're getting vapor from the top.
