With Mobile Link integration and built-in low tank level alerts, you can avoid run-outs, control your consumption, and ensure that your appliances have the fuel they need to run smoothly. This powerful device measures the amount of liquid propane (LP) fuel remaining in your tank in real-time, allowing you to keep track of your consumption and plan for deliveries with ease. The simple setup process can be completed from your phone or computer, allowing you to start monitoring your tank level in minutes. Built-in text and email notifications alert you when your fuel level drops below a certain threshold, so you never have to worry about unexpected run-outs. With automatic alerts and frequent tank level readings, you can save energy and optimize your consumption. The sleek and compact design of the Generac 7009 is perfect for both above-ground and in-ground tanks and can be easily mounted using the magnetic back. Additionally, it has clear LED feedback on the monitor for cellular connection setup, and it can be installed with a remote-ready R3D dial that comes standard on propane tanks. The device requires an annual fee of $14.99 for 4G LTE cellular coverage. The reliable 4G LTE multi-carrier cellular connection ensures coverage in hard-to-reach areas, plus automatic network switching capabilities ensure the ultimate reliability. The propane tank level is viewable with any Android/iOS device or computer. The device has all the features you need to be sure your LP-powered appliances (e.g. furnace, water heater, stove, LP generator, fireplace, dryer, pool heater, etc.) stay powered.

Q: Can we do our own monitoring with out having a monthly service
3 years ago2 Answers
- A: they used to have a wifi set up where you could do this. they stopped that a few years ago. Now you MUST go through A propane company and then MUST only buy from that company. if you can buy this one and own it separate from any dealer you can buy propane from any dealer. The first year cell service is free.....normally. After that you MUST purchase a plan. If you really want one LTE and i do believe they have satellite ones for remote areas. If you can get one separate from A dealer that is the best way. This way you can still choose for the cheapest price.3 years agoHelpful?

Do NOT purchase this device
a year ago
Do NOT purchase this device as it does not work as described. Generac has completely removed the tank usage history capability and with their latest EULA (license agreement) they state that they do not guarantee access to any of the data that the device produces and you have no rights to that data. So after purchasing, they can remove the ability for you to see tank levels or any other data and there is nothing you can do about it.
When asked when the usage history would be available they provide no real response other than to say it's a bug. It is not a bug to remove functionality permanently across two different locations. That's an intent.
They have refused to provide any sort of refund and claim the device is working.
Generac as a company is no longer a name that is to be respected given their horrible customer service. There are other monitors out there that you should consider.
No, I do not recommend this product.

Just great, so far
3 years ago
This thing is great. You must have a remote ready gauge, if you do it is an easy hookup. The gauge has a little black pull out that says "remote ready". Just replace the piece of plastic with the plug on this. The device has a weird turn on/off sequence, uses a supplied magnet to do it. Works fine, though. My first reading was way off because I turned it on before I plugged it into the gauge, so I had to turn it off and on again to force a new reading. Which was right on.
It reads twice every 24 hours, will actually notify your gas vendor of the tank level. It has an easy to use app and website for remote monitoring. It will also notify you of a bunch of problem conditions, low battery, low propane level, device off line, etc. Supposedly, there is a charge for the monitoring app, I haven't been asked so far though.
Another thing, when I got the bad initial read, I called support. After 5pm Pacific Time on a Saturday. I was thinking to myself, "yeah right". After a quick menu, two rings later a HUMAN BEING picked up. A real person. Who actually knew what they were doing and helped me fix my problem. A remarkable sequence of events, these days.
So, if you travel a lot like I do and want to make sure your propane level is enough to keep your heat on or your backup power available, for the price this can't be beat. Apparently, if I understood the directions, it will monitor the level of oil tanks as well with the correct gauge.
One last thing, it appears these gauge dials can be swapped out so a remote ready dial can be homeowner installed, in certain circumstances. Google would be your friend on this.
I'll update as I get more time on this thing. So far, absolutely first rate.
