I don't believe that is true Gregg.

While perm. mounted tanks such as we have in westies do have
different regs than the portable tanks,  i believe they still need
some inspection/cert.

I will find out the law here in bc, but i have heard that inspection
needed in Ont and Sask.

Hi Alfred,

Simply put, the attendant filling your tank did not know his job.
Federal
law states that propane tanks mounted permanently on Recreational
Vehicles
are exempt from inspection requirements.

The ten year limit that applies to 25lb tanks does not apply to your
Vanagon.

Happy Trails,
