Thank you sir. The company I drive for has a lot of commercial accounts and fleets, so there is work available all year. Summer is a lot of landscapers, pool heaters, generators and bus fleets. Best of luck to you and stay safe.

Very interesting I've often wondered how those tanks get filled on the trucks. Thank you posting this, I assume the tank on the truck is 500 gallons?

Great explanation thanks from Brazil. Just let me as you a question. When you bled the hose, could that leak cause a fire?
@lems18902
2 жыл бұрын
If there were an ignition source it could - but in reality the amount that is being bled is pretty small, and dissipates quickly into the air. If it somehow did ignite, it would burn off all of the available fuel in seconds I think.

Is the hose heavy? Whats the heaviest it feels when its pulled so far?
@lems18902

It gets heavier the further you get from the truck for sure. And, of course, the crapier the weather...the harder it is to pull through wet grass, mud, etc. BUT - it is a lot lighter than a home heating oil hose!

@@Str8Rippin93 I had 7 years of experience. I also had gotten in under the old rules. You have to have "schooling" now to get a CDL and a class for your HAZMAT. Get your fingerprints and background check done first before you test for the hazmat certification. You also have to get a medical card yearly or every two years that states that you are DOT certified to drive. Propane driving starting out can be anywhere from $18 to $25 dollars an hour depending the location and company.

Good question - I really think with the incredible liquid to vapor expansion ratio - there is really very little vapor lost in the process. Not enough that it would make sense to add anymore hardware into the mix.

@@lems18902 example, a face shield will not protect you from a cloud of liquid. Especially using a 3” or 4” fill hose. Also any clothing will instantly freeze to your your skin unless you wore a full suit. All I am saying is safety regulations from OSHA can be a little overzealous.
@lems18902

@@flatbilly26 The face shield isn’t designed to protect from a hose rupture, or full flow. It is specifically a splash shield for residual liquid in the hose or fittings, especially during the disconnection operation after the fill. While I was wearing only because that specific fill site will ban your entire company for noncompliance, I certainly don’t see any downside to it. It takes less than 1/2 second to put on, and doesn’t negatively impact me in any what whatsoever - so even if your argument is valid in that it provides little to no protection (which I dispute) it also doesn’t hurt at all…. In my mind, I have zero aversion to mandated safety measures. I will practice them all - unless they cause addition risk to myself.
