Special Highlight: Tank Spotter at Booth #1057
One of the major highlights on the exhibit floor this year will be Tank Spotter at Booth #1057, where attendees can meet National Propane Safety Expert, Eric Leskinen, and experience a live demonstration of the Propane Safety App powered by TankSpotter.
At the 2026 NPGA Nashville Expo in April, visit Tank Spotter at Booth #1057 to see firsthand how propane marketers can significantly reduce liability risks, operational costs, insurance premiums, paperwork burdens, and compliance challenges. The platform aligns with NFPA 58, DOT, and OSHA requirements and is designed to streamline inspections, documentation, and safety oversight across propane operations.
The live demonstration will showcase how the app’s 60 customizable inspection modules, auto-verification tools, and instant feedback features help companies improve accountability while reducing manual paperwork and exposure to risk. For propane retailers navigating rising insurance costs and compliance scrutiny, this technology offers a practical, field-ready solution.
$10,000 Grand Prize & Over $20,000 in Door Prizes
To encourage participation and hands-on engagement, visitors to Booth #1057 will have access to significant prize opportunities.
A $10,000 top door prize, presented by ProDot Consulting, will be awarded to one attendee who stops by the Tank Spotter booth, provides contact information, and completes a full demonstration of the Propane Safety App.
In addition, more than $20,000 in additional door prizes will be offered to booth visitors, including:
• $10,000 in free propane safety training credits
• Credits toward new propane-focused websites
• Credits toward propane software applications
• Access to more than 1,000 expert safety videos and training modules
Attendees who complete the demo will automatically be entered into the prize drawings. For many propane operators, the training credits alone could offset significant compliance and workforce development costs.
If safety performance, insurance exposure, documentation accuracy, and operational efficiency are key priorities for your company in 2026, Booth #1057 should be on your Expo schedule.
