CO2 Tank

[Doug]

Thats for the larger one by the way, 20# I think the rent is only $40/yr and the fill close to $60 or something like that. No problem with certification or anything that way.

Doug Is that place called oxygen _ something?

This might sound crazy but go to your local pepsi distrubution warehouse they have co2 bottles there. Thats were i got mine i paid 50 dollars for a 20lb bottle and its lasted me 2.5 years so far

I will find out tonight and the exact cost.

Andy, what about certification? How many times have you refilled the bottle in that period of time?

[bear27]

Well since i just rent it off of pepsi i dont worry about certifacation. I have never needed to refill but when i do all you do is turn in the old bottle and pick up a new one

Bear
what did you ask when you phoned pepsi, is there a certain department you ask for. Did you say pepsi rented it to you?

[bear27]

Yeah they use co2 in all there pop dispencing machines and fountain pop machines. You go to customer service or what ever and say you want a co2 bottle they will probably ask why if you dont own a resturant you just tell them, and all should be cool was for me anyway

OK, I see its rented. I agree that avoids any hassle.

Gools, ours come from Praxair but my friend informs me that you need an account there. I beleive it cost him $50 or someting to open one. Guess were not important enough to their buisness.

WOW praxair will fill yours? When i went to them they said they didn't do it. Funny thing though, they had a sign in the window about refill paintball gun tanks.

My friends company does a lot of buisness with them. Perhaps that helped. He still had to open his own personal account though. Maybe each branch is different.
