Yes. We've seen a lot in 79 years, and as luck would have it, most propane customers run out of gas when temperatures are the coldest.
No matter what the temperature or how busy we are, if the tank is out of gas, a leak test is required. Being out of gas is considered an “interruption of service”. It may not be convenient for you or us, but it’s the law. If you are out of gas and it is not a result of a failure on our part, we will have to charge a fee for performing a leak test.
