I’ve got a client who wants an inspection done on a house in a rural area in Oregon. The house has a propane fireplace but apparently the owners removed exterior tank that feeds the fireplace. The client wants the fireplace tested and they’ve asked if I can bring my own set up (portable tank with hook-up) in order to test it.
Should I even be attempting this?
Am I taking on extra liability by doing this?
Will a standard propane tank (like the one on my grill) work for this?
I’ve never run into this situation before. Anyone have any ideas?
That was definitely my gut feeling but I wanted to bounce it off you all 1st.

You can recommend for a gas certified plumber to check out the system and possibly light the fireplace. Make sure the arrangement is conducted between the buyer and the plumber directly.
