What is the life span of a GAS IT refillable gas tanks & GAS IT bottles?
GAS IT refillable bottles and tanks lifespan depends on how they are looked after and also what the company doing the 10 year recertification find, because we know of some customers of ours who bought gas bottles and tanks back in the late 70's and 80's and they were still working fine for years.
Under UK law, privately owned end-user owned refillable gas bottles or gas tanks now need to be legally tested every 10 years as normal exchange type gas bottles are and we can't stress how important this is. It's more important with your privately owned bottle because when you buy it then is less likely to have been looked at afterwards by an experienced gas bottle or tank expert there after. With calor type bottles every time they are filled they are visually inspected.
If you don't want to get the bottle or tanks recertified ( contact us for an up to date list of companies in the UK and EU doing this service ) but want the easier way of just replacing your gas bottle or gas tank after 10 years with a new one, then if you return your 10 year old bottle or tank to us here at GAS IT HQ we will arrange to scrap your old GAS IT bottle or GAS IT tank in a safe and securely manor ( free of charge as we have for over 40 years ) but we will also do you a special 10 year replacement bottle or tank price.
The reason we ask for the old tanks or bottles be returned to us is because as a company who's whole ethos for over 40 years is looking towards the environment and caring for people and the planet, we don’t want old bottles with a risk of eventually rotting away and causing contamination or injury dumped in grass verges at the side of the roads or thrown at the bottom of the garden so we take them back and pay for them to be safely dispose on your behalf in lines with current environmental regulations. If this is a problem returning it to us there are organisations and individuals who can help you.
