Propane Tank Sensors
Real-Time Fuel Level Monitoring For Safer & More Convenient Propane Use
Propane tank sensors attach to the bottom or side of your tank to track fuel levels using weight, pressure, or ultrasonic readings. These sensors report updates to your smart home platform or mobile app, allowing you to monitor fuel consumption and receive alerts when levels drop too low.
Designed for grills, patio heaters, generators, and home propane systems, these devices make fuel management simpler and more predictable for daily use or seasonal activities.
Accurate Fuel Level Measurements
Sensors monitor tank fuel levels using weight-based or ultrasonic detection. This helps you understand real usage patterns and avoid running out unexpectedly.
Alerts For Low Propane Levels
You can receive notifications when propane drops below a chosen threshold, giving you time to schedule a refill or swap tanks before they run empty.
Wireless Connectivity For Remote Monitoring
Propane sensors often use Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, or proprietary wireless links to send updates to your mobile app or smart home system from nearby outdoor areas.
Simple Mounting On Standard Tanks
Most sensors attach magnetically to the bottom or side of common grill-size propane tanks, making installation quick and tool-free.
Useful For Grills, Heaters & Backup Systems
These sensors help manage fuel for outdoor grills, patio heaters, RV systems, generators, and other propane-powered devices around your home.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do propane tank sensors measure fuel level?
Sensors use either weight-based measurements or ultrasonic pulses to determine how much propane remains in the tank.
Do propane tank sensors work with all tank sizes?
Most sensors support standard 20-pound grill tanks, but some models work with larger home or RV tanks. Always confirm compatibility with your tank size.
Do these sensors require a hub?
Some sensors connect directly through Bluetooth or Wi-Fi, while others may need a bridge or proprietary gateway depending on the design.
Are propane tank sensors weather-resistant?
Outdoor-rated models are designed to handle temperature changes, moisture, and outdoor environments. Always check the environmental rating before outdoor use.
Can these sensors integrate with smart home platforms?
Integration varies by model. Some sensors connect directly to mobile apps, while others can be added to smart home systems through supported APIs or third-party integrations.
