Abstract
Provided herein is a system and method for refilling refillable pressurized fluid tanks. The system includes a source tank, having a source fluid, a target refillable tank, a valve assembly, and a fill hose. The valve assembly is affixed to the refillable fluid tank and is fluidly attached to the source fluid tank with the fill hose. The fluid from the source fluid tank is transferred to the target refillable fluid tank via the fill hose and the valve assembly. When the target refillable fluid tank is filled to capacity, excess propane is dispensed from the valve assembly through an overfill valve.
