As a welder who has handled cylinder tanks for over 20 years, I crank those regulators down with a wrench with a decent amount of force without ever having an issue. One easy way to find leaks is to make sure your solenoid is closed and crack open the cylinder. Your regulator should indicate how full your cylinder is. Now close it, and it should maintain that pressure. If your needle starts dropping, then you have a leak. One last thing, cylinders are under immense pressure, accidently knocking one over, and you'll have a missile on your hands. Make sure to secure/chain up your cylinder.

You can find leaks with soapy water, it'll bubble if you spray it on the joints. Also a water based bubble counter is a good visual way to instantly see your flow. In addition you can get cheap tanks and refils at a local beer brewing shop. Finally, fresh water aquarium micro misting CO2 bubble stones can add a ton of enrichment to your nutrient water, it works better in hydro systems.

Assuming that space is well sealed you would be fine with a smaller 20lb tank and it would last you a month or 2. now if the room is not well sealed you will go through the gas fast either way and larger may be better if you plan to run co2 anyway. Instead of trying to guess the flow rate i would get a monitor/controller to measure the room for you and it will turn the tank on and off as needed. I made a newer version of this video that goes into a little more detail.

@Tri-State Trichomes I guess you're using an AC unit to control temperatures. How strong is your AC and how much does it impact the electricity bill? I'm running 2 sealed tents, but before choosing a portable ac unit I went on and tried switching on all 6x 600W LED and I'm getting 88-89F° with them at 25% power and currently no intake or exhaust. I'm think a 6000BTU for each tent might do the job but it will be constantly working at max power. Compared to my previous runs with an unsealed setup I'm in disbelief at how much heat the AC will have to dissipate and thus the load on the electric consumption.

Since starting Co2 is not a a cheap initial investment for everything. I am not sure how worth it the cost to return would be. I would still suggest sealing the room the tent sits in and enriching that space or use the passive co2 in your living space to enrich.

Ambient Co2 levels are around 420 (nice). So 400 is low and inside your house chances are you're closer to 500 or 600 if not more. I wouldn't add co2 before they pop. Just you going in the room to check on them will add a lot if you look at your monitor you'll notice a BIG jump after a couple minutes. Even seedling and very early veg they use such a small amount that my regulator never turned on and my own breath was more than enough.

Homie you should chain that tank up....that thing somehow falls and shears that valve it will literally go through a cinderblock wall like a missle.

and this tank doesnt have that much pressure. You may be thinking of an oxygen tank. it is under much more pressure.

@@TriStateTrichomes glad to hear its chained, oxygen is bad too, but co2 has plenty of pressure to still be a missle. I work with compressed gases like co2 and oxygen

@@imdrunken These CO2 tanks tend to land 900-1000 PSI. I know when i did welding back in the day i handled oxy and acetylene. O2 tanks are double around 2000PSI i believe. But yes i keep it chained to the corner. I made 2 videos on how to set these tanks up and i believe i cover chaining them up in each. Definitely can cause damage and cost money if they fall

You could have lost 5 minutes about the hand tight we get it and more important how does the regulator communicate with the controller that would have been better info

I had damaged one in the past myself and made sure to clarify its a lot easier to do so than you think. I'm still traumatized I guess ha

if you strip the threads, that doesn't ruin your tank... 😂.

How long does that big ass bottle last? Haha

By mid flower about 1 month with that 1 800w light from my other videos. My more recent videos have 2 800watts so I'll see if there's a notable uptake in consumption. I would assume so though

I secured mine to the wall just in case it turns into a rocket 😂

Come on you spend all that time showing how to put a regulator on a tank and what you really should have been doing is showed how to set up the controller

the controller is different for each brand. So your individual instructions are best. But the tank is the high pressure metal can that i felt needed the proper explanation. I also made a video after this giving a little more detail for those who asked. This one has more views though and is pushed to more ppl.

Beverage grade or industrial grade?
