The weather is warming and it is time to take out the charcoal grills or gas grills for summer.
Price for a bag of eight pounds of charcoal ranges from about $ 4.50 to $ 6, but may cost more if the mesquite charcoal contains or does not need lighter fluid. Propane typically costs about $ 20 for an exchange tank or between $ 50 and $ 60 for a new reservoir, if propane is not as widely available as coal.
The largest selection of charcoal can be in local grocery stores, including Lucky Supermarket in Montclair Village. There, an 8.3 pound bag of Kingsford charcoal original $ 5.

Distance should not matter.
The distance from your home should not matter if the propane company has properly set the regulators. Propane gas systems have two regulators: primary at the propane tank, and secondary where the line enters your home. The primary regulator reduces the pressure down to a level between 2 and 5 psi. The secondary regulator reduces it below 1/2 psi.
100# tank will work when full for a while but will not be able to keep up. They work well when just connected to one appliance such as a water heater or a cookstove but will not vaporize enough fuel for a large appliance or multiple appliances.
Everythi... is correct. You are pulling the vapor out of the tank faster than the liquid can vaporize within the tank.
The distance will not matter. If you have 30 psi at the tank, you will have 30 psi at the heater. What you will encounter is a problem with the volume of gas you are trying to supply to the heater. This is caused by using a pipe diameter that is too small. 1/2 inch pipe or bigger will be good for up to 100 feet. I am not an expert in gas technologies,
