Underground propane tanks help retain your curb appeal. Once buried, only the lid is seen protruding from the ground. The lid keeps the regulator, gauges, and filling port from exposure to the elements. We offer different propane tank sizes to meet a wide range of residential and commercial needs. When filled, the volume of propane is approximately 80% of the total tank capacity to allow for expansion.
These large propane tanks are typically used for whole-home systems, home heating, generators, pool heat, commercial cooking, drying cleaning, and crop drying. The tank is about 6′ 3/16″ tall and 15′ 11″ long. It is appropriate for most buildings ranging from 4500 sq. ft. and up. Metered systems for small communities and shared commercial buildings commonly install 1000-gallon propane tanks as their central propane storage.
This underground propane tank requires you to dig a hole in the yard on your property. Excavating the yard will cause damage and leave a large patch of dirt. However, you can plant grass and sod, and you’ll eventually be able to plant and landscape this space. In fact, the yard can end up looking even better than before and help raise the value of your property!
Above-ground propane tanks can be an eyesore and can require more creative landscaping to hide. Underground propane tanks are also surrounded by earth so they’re not as affected by weather conditions and freezing temperatures as above-ground tanks.

Factors That Affect the Cost of Propane Tank Installation
Buying or Leasing Propane Tank
Choosing to buy or lease (or rent) a propane tank is a major determiner of the overall cost of the propane tank installation. Buying a propane tank has a high startup cost, plus you’ll be expected to pay all maintenance costs. Owning your propane tank provides you the flexibility to contract out for propane service from any propane company.
Leasing or renting a propane tank can be a good option if you don’t expect to stay on the property for the long term. Leasing can be ideal if you simply don’t want to outlay money on a propane tank—especially since propane tanks add little or nothing to a home’s resale value.
Length of Pipe
The length of the pipe running from the propane tank to the entry point of the house influences the cost of installing a propane tank. The larger the tank, the farther away from the house it must be installed—per local code. A 1,000-gallon propane tank may need to be a minimum of 25 feet from the house.
Location
An exposed propane tank will be less expensive than a buried tank. A buried propane tank costs more to bury, plus maintenance and repair costs down the road will be higher.
In addition, locating the propane tank conveniently for refilling is important since the delivery truck’s hoses have limited lengths. Generally, the propane tank should be located no more than 80 feet away from a road, driveway, or another hard surface for the propane truck to drive onto.
