In the past several years have never had both bottles go empty & also have not had to go out to switch in the middle of the night.
If not running the furnace all the other LP appliances don't use much gas, 1-20 lb should last a very long time.l

Yup!! I used to be part of the “leave one closed” until that one night/early morning when it was snowing and my interior temp was in the 40’s. Had to get dressed and trudge through that freezing stuff. NEVER again. I make it a habit to carry a spare cylinder and check my regulator every 3 days. The spare can go on at anytime and I’m not rushed to refill at the campground price.
