We use those remote fuel fill station fairly often because there are a few jurisdictions nearby that require it. Pryco is one company that makes them. But they are pretty expensive, so I’m not necessarily suggesting that it’s a good alternative.

The exterior fuel fill is required to be no more than 5’ above grade and usually ends up being about 7’ above grade. In the past, we’ve used a permanently installed stair platform or a Morrison overfill prevention valve, shut-off valve, quick connect and spill containment box... neither option is economical. We have several installs coming up and was looking for something better. Typically, the fuel delivery driver does not use the exterior fill and fills directly to the tank inside the pump room, but the exterior fill is still required to be within guidelines. Any ideas?
