CO2 refills
April 26, 2009 - 3:40pm
Hey Gang, I was wondering if anyone knows the least expensive place to refill/exchange CO2 in the Temecula area. I usually go to theAirgas place, but it always seems pricey. I need to refill/ exchange both my 5 # and my 20# tanks......Tanks for the help;-)

I go to WestAir in Escondido. They are just a short detour on the way to/from work. Plus for every 5 fill ups, you get one free, for CO2. Argon tank exchanges are a bit more tanks before you get the free exchange.
For a 5#, it is about $20. The bigger the tank, the cheaper it is. They figure it cost so much just to connect the tank, doesn't matter what size it is.
You can take your tank anywhere to get it exchanged, but if it has been a while since you have exchanged it, go back to the place you last exchanged it at, or you may end up paying for the Hydro Test, about $25.
I have 4 tanks from WestAir and one tank from Cameron Welding Supply.

The Beverage Factory next to my work, down in Mira Mesa, does refills of 5lbs for 10 bucks. That being said I go to WestAir down here in San Diego to fill my CO2 tanks as I have a 20 and a 10, and they charge baout 20 bucks for both. Its a swap out and like Mike said, you change out 5 and get a free one.

So bringing this back up. I remembered last night that the club tank is empty. Jim is going to get a tank for his party tonight but a few other people are in need of CO2 over the next couple of weeks.
Can Garry or Eric take the bottle in and get it filled or should I go and get it filled locally tomorrow?

SO why not just use Cameron Welding in Murrieta? They charge 14.95 for a 5lb bottle and its a fill. If you go bigger it gets cheaper.

I don't know them... I know my guys. Do you want to get her filled? Oh yea, I will not be at the party to-night.
I have an Airgas exchange tank, not the cheepest but really convenient. I know Eric works right down the street from a place that does refills. Might want to ask him.
