When you are in the business of fuel, monitoring your inventory is one of the most important aspects of running your business. Every drop of fuel unaccounted for is money lost, so keeping tabs on fuel levels in all tanks on your business property or on your delivery vehicles is hugely important. Thankfully, technology has made it much easier to monitor fuel levels without having to manually check every tank you have on a daily basis. Wireless tank monitoring equipment allows you to check the fuel levels remotely any time that you like. Check out some of the features you should be looking for in a tank monitoring solutions provider for your propane business. 

1. The company that provides the solution offers unlimited tech support. 

Getting used to using electronic tank monitors that have wireless connections can be a little intimidating if you have been used to doing all of your monitoring the old-fashioned way. You will most definitely need tech support when you first start using the monitors, but it will also be just as important that you have access to tech support down the road. Companies that offer tech support will be available at most hours of the day if you are having issues with one of your monitors or your system setup. 

2. The company offers as many monitors as you need for your tanks. 

If the service provider has a limited number of monitors they will supply you with, you will likely have to pay more money to get more units added any time you expand your tank storage capacity. It is much better to go with a provider who will have no issue about giving you however many tank monitors you need to keep every one of your tanks in check. 

3. The company offers cloud data storage for monitoring data. 

When you have consistent data being recorded from multiple propane tanks on a daily basis, it can really add to the amount of data you have to be responsible for and store. Therefore, it is best if you have a solutions provider who offers cloud data storage for the incoming readings that you are getting from your tanks every day. This will help ensure that you will always be able to access the yielded data from the past and will not face risks of losing that information if you do not have a sizable enough system for storage.
