Key Takeaways
• Gas Production Company makes custom propane hoses for local propane needs.
• Fully reconditioned 5 lb and 10 lb propane tanks are available.

Why Custom Propane Hoses Matter
Not every propane setup is the same. Some customers need a shorter hose. Others need a longer hose for a heater, cooker, camper, workshop, or farm setup.
A hose that is too short can be hard to use. A hose that is too long can get in the way. A worn or cracked hose can become a safety concern.
That is why custom propane hoses are helpful. They give you the right length for the job. They also help you avoid forcing a setup that does not fit well.
Gas Production Company can help with custom propane hoses made for practical use around Mid-Michigan homes, garages, cabins, farms, and small businesses.
Common Uses for Custom Propane Hoses
Custom propane hoses are often used for everyday propane equipment.
They can help with:
• Outdoor cooking equipment
• Portable heaters
• Campers and RV setups
• Garage and workshop equipment
• Farm and agricultural use
• Temporary heating needs
• Cabin and rural property setups
In Mid-Michigan, propane use changes with the season. A hose that works well for summer grilling may not be the same setup you need for winter shop heat or fall hunting camp.
Reconditioned 5 lb and 10 lb Propane Tanks
Gas Production Company also has fully reconditioned small propane tanks available.
Current tank pricing:
• 5 lb tanks — $60.75 each, full
• 10 lb tanks — $67.50 each, full
These smaller tanks are easy to move and store. They are a good fit when a full-size tank is more than you need.
What Are 5 lb Propane Tanks Good For?
A 5 lb propane tank is compact and portable. It is useful when space is limited or when you do not need a large propane supply.
Common uses include:
• Camping
• Tailgating
• Small grills
• Portable heaters
• Ice fishing setups
• Short outdoor projects
• Backup fuel for light use
For many Mid-Michigan families, a 5 lb tank is easy to keep on hand for quick weekend use.
What Are 10 lb Propane Tanks Good For?
A 10 lb propane tank gives you more capacity while still staying portable.
Common uses include:
• Larger portable grills
• Longer camping trips
• Workshops
• Small heaters
• Cabins
• Farm chores
• Outdoor work areas
A 10 lb tank can be a good middle ground. It gives you more run time than a smaller tank without being as bulky as a standard grill tank.

Propane Safety Still Comes First
Small propane tanks and hoses are convenient, but they still need to be handled with care.
Check hoses for cracks, wear, loose fittings, or damage. Keep tanks upright. Store tanks in a safe outdoor area. Do not use damaged equipment.
If something smells wrong, looks wrong, or does not connect correctly, stop using it and ask for help.
Gas Production Company also supports propane safety through inspections and the GasCheck safety program. You can learn more about propane safety inspections and local service options.
