When I took my newly installed GoWesty tank to the local RV place to get it
filled, I asked them about purging. They acted like that was nonsense,
filled it once, and I didn't have any problems. I expected the burner to
flicker some but didn't see it. Maybe if I used the refrigerator on gas (I
don't remember now if I did) there might have been a problem keeping it
going.
