FYI: Co2 Refill in Jax

[Acroholic]

Had a hard time finding who did Co2 Refills here in town. I found a few places who will do a tank exchange, but I did'nt want to do that.
Found this place called "PYE BARKER" on Beaver St. who refilled my 5lb. Co2 tank while I waited, and it only cost $16 and change.
If anyone interested:

Pye Barker
Fire & Safety, Inc.
5863 West Beaver St.

I get my 20lb. bottle filled for the same price on Phillips
and they will refill the same bottle if it up to date on the safty date.

A Hydro is good for 5 years from date on bottle. What is the name of the place?

Robert are you talking about Tri tech welding? If so those are the folks who filled my tank that exploded on the ride home but they took care of me and gave me an aluminum tank

 

[marineduud]

It is Tri teck and have been getting it fiied for about 2yrs from them and never had any trouble. I think your exp. was a fluke.

Hey MarineDud,
Before you post and send people there, (as I was headed there this morning to fill my 20lb. as per your post)
get your facts straight.
I'm glad I called first because:
I called them this morning and to Refill a 5lb. tank it is $18.98 out the door.
I asked them about a 20lb and it was $24.56 out the door.

They advertise $10.78 for the fill but after HazMat ($6.95) and Tax it totals out the door at $18.98
I think I'll save money on refills and gas and go back to Pye Barker.

Thanks, Brian

Well thats funny as I sit here and look at my invoice from 7-13-06
with tax and all its $17.96 so they went up what can I say, but I think my invoice is a fact!

 

[Acroholic]

Was that for a Refill or exchange? A 30% price increase is substantial as far as I'm concerned.

 

[marineduud]

That was a refill. Oh and its Duud not Dud.

I just got my 5lb CO2 bottle for my kegerator filled by Consolidated Carbonics at 6953 Stuart st, west of Lane Ave. I paid $10.17 with tax for a refill. A 10 lb refill is only a couple of bucks more.

 

[Acroholic]

Awesome...thanks for the heads up on that Paul. When you get that hooked up...don't forget to send out some invites....:beer:

Acroholic,
Under your current tanks you have a 190gal. Oceanic tank I was'nt aware they made a 190gal. or is that because it's made with Diamante Glass..?

 

[Acroholic]

60" x 24" x 30" = 187 Gallons........? What does the Glass Manufacturer have anything to do with size?

 

[marineduud]

Well I was just asking in your tank thread it says 180gal. not
190 thats all I just wanted the facts.

 

[Acroholic]

Not another one!.....:eek2:

 

[marineduud]

Another ??????
