Even though no plastizer leeching filter is required, what about contaminants from the propane tank itself?

The new hoses are only made to eliminate the issue with the older hoses. If your tank has contaminates you might still need a filter. When using the tank make sure the tank is upright to help keep the contaminates from reaching the hose.

No, not needed. I've never heard of using a fuel filter for propane powered appliances like stoves oe lamps or BBQ. It might be a concideration when using propane as a liquid fuel, but when using it as a vapor the fuel doesn't carry impurities.

you don't have to, just get the adopter to use your regular propane tank. We love ours cause my sons really love to bar B Q's and this is the only way we can do it when they can't come home. Easy to pack away and you get the a great bargan. Back to your question yes you have too if you don't get the adopter for the proper amount of gas flow.

No it's not, not sure why your having that problem, I use TSC and they took care of it no problem. Most Filling stations should be able to purge a tank.

As the previous posters said - the tank comes with an internal filter. Mine is a Jebao brand and it came with a sponge (mechanical filtration). I purchased a Purigen from Seachem 250ml + a single small media mesh bag and added it to the sponge. You can basically create ANY filter with ANY media you want.

The package includes everything you need except the propane tank. I believe it included a package of 2 tacky strips ( the black & white patterned sheet ) and 1 attractant cartridge. I would recommend purchasing adition tacky strips as they work well mine needed weekly changes due to how many bugs were stuck to it.

I'm sorry, I don't recall, except that they filled it without a problem. I think the tank has a manual purge valve that accepts a common screwdriver, but I might be wrong.

Nope. No filter required. Nothing required but water. We love ours! Works well.

The one I bought did. It's hard to imagine that they'd sell it to you without those items. Incidentally, it's a great piece of equipment. I plumbed it myself and it works beautifully, but be sure and maintain it properly. I open it up and hose the filter off each Saturday as part of my routine pool maintenance.

No, no filter is required. However, mine came broken... I do not recommend.

Yes. A filter is recommended, but the connection can be made directly to your supply line.

I am positive you could use a solvent with caution. The tank is stainless steel.

Tanks that will be shipped generally are not pre-purged. Often times they are filled with a neutral gas to compensate for the pressure changes related to shipping, and to ensure the inside of the tank does not rust. The Flame King rep below says all NEW tanks are purged which was not the case with the one I received. Cost me $5 to have it purged at Amerigas in North Las Vegas, NV and $17 to fill. Purging a tank with propane, and then shipping with propane vapors inside it would make for a Hazmat shipment. The bottle states re-certification needs to be done every 10 years as well.

just your normal BBQ tank available at your local hardware store. see: http://currentaccounting.net/wp-admin/css/propane-bbq-tank-safety-i1.jpg

Yes! I had to quit using it as EVERYTHING was sticky coated w/calcium deposits. Post asking now if there is a 'demineralizing' filter that can be put in tank.

You don't "need" to although it will elongate the life of the tank. Do not apply it w/ fuel pump in the tank.

There is nothing in the documentation that says. I don't know why it would need to be. All it does is filter the coolant.
