Snowbirds and gas grills
 

We are splitting our time between the Villages and RI for a while. Just wondering if other part-time Villagers have gas grills. I don’t think it is recommended to store the tanks in the garage while we are gone. Would it be ok to leave outside with a cover on it or would it be best to just put this purchase off until we are down here full time. We are in a courtyard villa. Thanks for your thoughts on this. By the way we do have a gas grill sitting in our backyard In RI but it’s not close to the house as it would be here.

If u leave it outside make sure u tie it down in the event of a hurricane

I leave a spare tank in the garage. We’ve lived here full time since 2014.

I keep ours in a Golf Cart Garage every day and have never really felt really good about it. But the gas tanks that are full waiting for us to purchase are stored outside in the blazing heat and direct sun at Lowes and Home Depot.

Inside or outside? Flip a coin? I'm willing to learn on this one also.

Mine is outside and hidden from view, but it is outside.

If you buy a smaller gas grill from Ace Hardware they have a very small (think camping) propane tank that stores easily. They run 2 for $10. We grill for two people and this grill works great. It comes with a stand, too... https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...a9e3c4004b.jpg

That truly is all we really needed. It's not like we will be grilling Brontosaurus Burgers for the kids and the friends anymore. We got a small Weber so I guess that ours wasn't overkill but yours is better. Peace Out!

I put my grill and tank in the garage when I leave for the summer. No problem.

Leave outside, tied down.

That may be the best answer. Thanks.

Careful, we have our grill in our back yard and someone stole the new grill cover we had just purchased.
It just never ends.........

Just wondering.....a call to one of the fire stations might result in a professional answer.

For a couple of dollars worth of gas, empty the tank before you leave and put everything in the garage.

Great ideas. Thanks everyone.

Smart thinkin there Wilson!
