Question
Jmnhunter
i have a ice castle with 2-30lb tanks that has one of those camco plastic propane covers. when i take the top off to look at the valves and regulator assembly, I get a slight smell of propane, doesnt seem constant or strong.
the 2 stage auto change over regulator is only about 3 years old; so i'm not sure if its coming from a "vent" from the regulator-if there is such a thing? I've taken off the tanks and tested them separately and the leak is not coming from the tanks, i've isolated it to the regulator/hoses as I could still get a slight smell with the tanks off even a few days after. So i'm not sure if this is normal or indeed a true leak? I've tried spraying the tank connections with soapy water with no signs of a leak, I did not test the main hose that connects to the regulator, although I did put some new thread tape on that and it made no difference.
is there supposed to be some slow vent causing a slight smell? Which I suppose would make sense with the heat beating on the tanks all day
