    Are you actually serving out of them while you are gone? What pressure is your regulator set at? If they are not serving while you are gone try to check the tank gaskets.

      Leaky PRV's ??

      PRV's can theive a lot of gas too. Tape some latex gloves over them, if they inflate they are leaking.

        thanks alot fellas I dont like how they are all linked because it is hard to isolate the problem ..i think they should be seperate so if one leaks they all dont leak........thanks again

          Spray everything down with some "leak check". Windex will work and does not leave a residue but for a more obvious leak check fill a spray bottle with water and put a few drops (less than an oz) of dishwashing detergent (like Dawn) in it, spray all of your fittings and look for bubbles.

            What the heck is connected together? Can you take a pick of your set up? I would like to check it out. Are you talking about the Vacuum/pressure relief valves?
