When it rains, it pours! Now our propane tank has to be replaced. Any place locally that

has the best prices. We have gone to several places- the prices are very different.

Thank you all for the help.

When I bought mine, a year ago, I found that Amutio, next to Guadalajara Pharmacy, in Ajijic, had the best price.

They delivered for free. I tipped the driver, tho.

Use Home Cheapo as your base reference for 'best pricing'. Sizes from 100 to 5000 liter.

You can then compare/negotiate with Ferreteria Amutio (next to Farmacia Guadalajara in Ajijic)

Casa de Plomero (on the carretera at the top of the hill in west Ajijic) and/or

Ferreteria Calzada (on the carretera next to Immigration in Chapala, also in Jocotepec)

Just curious, how do you know your tank needs to be replaced ?

It would be a rare occurence that your tank has failed. Guages, valves

and hoses, yes; but the tank itself, no. (Barring damage caused

by external forces).

Did your propane provider tell you this, maybe as a way of explaining why

you are 'using' more gas than before ? "It must be from an unidentified leak in the tank"

If so, it's more likely that he has not been filling the tank with all of the propane

that you've been paying him for. I have had this problem with multiple propane

companies locally.

I hope the new Ministerio Publico service at LCS will make it easier to file

denuncias aginst the unscrupulous propane sellers.

Does the MP handle that sort of thing?Wouldn't PROFECO be the appropriate agency to complain to?
