The undersigned “Customer” hereby acknowledges the following conditions concerning the purchase of a Davenport Energy propane tank, the purchase of a new propane tank provided by Davenport Energy Inc., or the acknowledgement of an existing “customer owned” tank.

  1. The purchase or ownership of a propane tank means that you assume all liability and the total maintenance responsibility for the tank itself, the related piping and the equipment attached to the tank. Davenport Energy will conduct a safety inspection of the tank prior to the sale or the continued service of an existing customer owned tank to insure that the tank meets applicable safety standards. Upon receipt of the tank Bill of Sale or inspection of an existing claimed customer owned tank, you will accept the tank and installation “as is.”
  2. Customer responsibility for the tank includes, but is not limited to the following. Customer is responsible for abiding by all applicable local, state, and federal regulations and abiding by all applicable codes established for the tank location.
    • Tank surface including removal of surface rust and upkeep of paint, including the metal surface next to the ground. Maintenance of all regulators and pigtails. Regulators go out of date and must be replaced according to manufacturers’ recommendations. (12-20 years depending on manufacturer)
    • Integrity of tank valves and gauges.
    • Integrity of the supply lines running to and from tank.
    • ASME tanks do not have to be re-qualified. They must have a date plate attached, and DOT tanks have to be re-qualified twelve years from the date of manufacture. Thereafter, visual re-qualifications are allowed and are good for five years.
  3. Davenport Energy will charge applicable service rates for any maintenance to the tank or tank attachments.
  4. A Bill of Sale or copy of inspection of claimed customer-owned tank, which includes tank information, will be applicable.

The undersigned understands that Davenport Energy delivers to tanks on an automatic basis. Should the undersigned enter into a supply agreement with Davenport Energy, the undersigned agrees to notify Davenport Energy prior to any propane delivery made by Davenport Energy, if another propane supplier has filled or serviced the tank. Any out-of-gas situation will warrant a leak test/system inspection prior to restoring service to your system. There is a fee for this service. ALWAYS ARRANGE FOR A DELIVERY PRIOR TO AN OUT-OF-GAS SITUATION.

By signing this agreement, the undersigned understands and accepts the provisions contained herein and acknowledges receipt of a copy of this agreement (front and back) and of the regulations and instructions referred to herein.
