Have had a hard time finding anywhere to refill CO2 here in town. Is it true that Atlantic Fire and Safety is the only place to refill your tank in Fredericton?? :shock:

Yea I think air liquid makes you use their tanks, and wont refill personal tanks ... from what I can remember. I get it done at atlantic fire and safety also. I think it runs $25 for a small tank. I've run at least 20 batches through since the last time I filled it and my tank is a bit less than half full. So it'll last a while.

Atlantic Fire and Safety is real nice as they can do it quickly (they fill right there). You can get it done cheaper at Glenn Kenedy in Lincoln 506-458-9750 he is $2.20 / lbs of CO2, plus like a $12 or $13 fee (something like that). Praxair will also take your tank but they send it to SJ to get filled (every Tuesday) so you have to wait a week - pretty much same price as Glenn though...

anybody know if I can go to the Saint john Praxair location directly? Thought I had lots in my backup tank, only to have an undetected leak at the keg. Left it on, only to discover she'd bled dry over night. I was not planning on a dry holiday season!!!

I thought the main location was in Moncton for Air Liquide?

Yes, I have gone to the Saint John location directly in the past. IIRC they can usually fill up within a couple of hours.
