co2 refill at west area

[ahblue]

hi may i noe where i can top up my co2 at west area??
thanks

[PeterGwee]

C328...Gen-X....comes to mind...

[Allen_1971]

not sure about gen-x, but refills at C328 can be quite slow... Also depending how far west you are, you might consider refilling at soxal itself?

[PeterGwee]

Soxal is good I think only if you are driving...don't think it would be very nice to bring a cylinder and take so many public transport just to reach there...[]

FYI,
SOXAL only do topping up on tested cylinders only.

[Nicky]

I got my tank from NA. How do I tell if it is a certified and tested cylinder?

[PeterGwee]

For those who intend to refill at Soxal, please make sure your cylinder is a DOT certified one. You can see the DOT stamp, together with the test dates ,etc on your cylinder.
Those non DOT certified cylinders, such as the Taiwanese UP brand & such, will be rejected. They will not even test the tank.

i live near gen-X and 328.
any idea how much and how long they take to refill it??

[PeterGwee]

For C328..last time ask the uncle is about 3 working days...Haven't got the chance to top up my cylinder yet...Mmmmm...[]

c328, you have to bring on day1, day 2 goes to the refill shop *dunno where* then day 3 comes back to you.

if you manage to give them the cylinder at 10:30 when they open, then you can get it back next day.

3litre cylinder = $25.
I personally rather just travel by mrt to kallang, take a cab to bioplast ... it'll cost me slightly more, but I get the cylinder straight away and get to look see.. (but its no joke carrying a full 5 litre steel cylinder.

[Simon]

i too perfer bioplast, on the spot and its cheaper

[PeterGwee]

Isn't taking a cab to the place you are to top up going to cost you more even though you can get it done on the spot? Would like to know how much they cost to top up at bioplast? Me live beside Queenstown MRT so transport using MRT is no problem..but travel down to kallang and then take cab is going to cost me more leh unless they are pretty good with topping up the CO2? []

[vinz]

Well, the NE-line will have a station near BioPlast.

[PeterGwee]

Vinz...the NE line ain't ready yet though...Mmmmmm..have to waste some bucks now just to top up CO2 on the spot for now I guess. []

[sherchoo]

Simon,
Of course you prefer bioplast, cos aailable drivers around for your disposal.

[PeterGwee]

Oh..by the way..what are the openning hours of bioplast?

[ahblue]

erm dun mind can state the price at Bioplast and address oso..thanks!

[sherchoo]

Should cost around $20 for a 5L tank. Best ask Ah tan himself.

Address please refer to the LFS List (top of the page)

Hi,

after doing a search for previous posting on CO2 refills, I've concluded that CO2 topup for people staying at west side is best done at SOXAL. Plus it's cheaper and safer cos they'll do a test when they do refilling. However, I need to ask a stupid question. Do I need to remove the regulator or needle valve or solenoid if I have all these attached or just leave it together with the canister? I've just bought a very small canister and got a regulator on it. Never done any refilling at all. Please help me cos I just started using canister. Thanks!
