The Letters "WC" on a propane tank stand for "Water Capacity", and are followed by a number which would identify the tanks Water Capacity typically measured in lbs. Water weighs approximately 8.3lbs per gallon Propane weighs approximately 4.24lbs per gallon
The capacity of a propane tank with a gross water capacity of 285 gallons is typically around 200 gallons. This allows for expansion room when the propane is being stored or transported. It is important not to fill the tank to its maximum water capacity to prevent overfilling and potential safety hazards.
A 100 pound propane cylinder can hold approximately 23.6 gallons of water.
Assuming the propane cylinder you mentioned is a standard 20 lb propane tank, it would hold around 4.7 gallons of water. This varies depending on the specific dimensions of the tank.
Tankless water heaters can be powered by electricity or propane. Electric tankless water heaters are more common, but propane tankless water heaters are popular in regions where natural gas is not available. Both types offer energy efficiency and the convenience of on-demand hot water.

100 gallons? Are you kidding me. Who asked this question. You need not be dealing with propane. Believe it or not, there are 1000 US Gallons in a 1000 "Gallon" propane tank. Some peoples kids.

Ethyl mercaptan is added to propane tanks to give propane its distinctive smell for safety reasons, as propane is naturally odorless. While ethyl mercaptan itself is not considered highly toxic, inhaling high concentrations of it can lead to irritation of the lungs and respiratory tract. It is important to handle propane tanks with caution and in well-ventilated areas to minimize any potential health risks.
Propane fuel comes in either a liquid or gas form, and is used to power engines, gas torches, barbecue grills, portable stoves, and residential heating. You are probably most familiar with propane in tanks. Propane tanks are used for fuel in cooking on grills or camping stoves. The tank is normally 4.73 gallons, and is often referred to as a barbecue tank. The propane tank works by way of an attached metering nozzle device. Some rural homes or farms use larger propane tanks that are periodically refilled by propane-delivery trucks. These are common to homes or farms without convenient access to other energy sources. Larger residential propane tanks can be used to fuel furnaces, cooking stoves, water heaters, laundry dryers, grain dryers, and various heat-producing appliances around the home. Propane containers hold propane in its liquid form. Tanks use a series of standardized valves. These valves work together to ensure proper propane maintenance. The valves on a propane tank include a • Fill valve, which is used for attaching a delivery hose and refilling the propane tank. • Vapor return valve that functions to normalize pressure within the tank during propane delivery. • Service valve, which changes liquid gas propane into a vapor. • Relief valve that is used to release excess pressure and prevent volatile reactions. • Liquid withdraw valve, which controls the amount of LP gas that is released from the propane tank. In addition to these valves, two types of standardized gauges are essential to proper tank operation. A float gauge measures the amount of propane in the tank and a fixed liquid level gauge indicates when the propane level exceeds 80% of the tank’s total volume. Propane tank installation is a licensed trade, and only skilled individuals may install a propane storage tank. Professional propane workers ensure compliance with state regulations and safety to propane tank users. For larger tanks, a crane is often used for installing the propane container. A propane delivery driver will periodically return and refill a propane tank as it is needed. In addition, the driver is needed to recertify the tank for safety every 5 years, and to check environmental hazards.
Tanks that collect waste water are known as "Septic Tanks". These are mostly used for residential and small commercial properties in areas that are not served by Public Sewer facilities. Septic Tanks are typically made of high-strength cast concrete, often reinforced with steel bars or mesh. They typically have a capacity of approximately 900 to 2500 gallons.
Probably not a very sensible idea. Water tanks are unlikely to be rated for the pressures used for LPG tanks, and LPG, being both flammable and explosive, is not the stuff that you want to play with.
Propane and water, are both examples of Compounds.
Selecting the appropriate propane tank size is essential for effective operation without complications. Propane tanks are available in a range of sizes for different uses and needs. A 20-pound tank, often used for grilling or occasional heating, is sufficient for smaller residential requirements and offers easy portability. For larger home appliances such as furnaces, water heaters, or stoves, a 100-pound tank is often adequate, reducing the frequency of refills needed for moderate use. In scenarios with greater demand, like heating an entire residence or running several appliances, substantial tanksβ500-gallon or 1,000-gallonβare necessary, particularly in homes heavily dependent on propane. For commercial and industrial use, tanks can scale up from 1,000 gallons to several thousand gallons to maintain a steady propane supply. Determining the best propane tank size should be based on use frequency, the quantity of propane-dependent appliances, and the size of your property. A propane expert should be consulted to ensure safe and regulation-compliant use.
