how do you store your compressed air tanks during the summer times?

if you have air in them, just keep it out of direct sunlight, and i wouldnt leave mine in my car thats parked in the sun either, but you geneally dont have to be as carful as a co2 tank since, when the air is put into the tank it is already hot

i keep mine wrapped in a blanket in a closet, is that fine or can that over heat?

if you're storing it full, keep it in a cool place making sure it does not roll. it is recommended to keep it upright, but the fiberglass bottles cannot be stored upright due to their round bottom shape.

if it is not full, it really doesn't matter if it is in a hot place because air won't expand enough to cause the burst disc to blow (you'd die before it gets hot enough for the burst disc to pop).

Do not store the cylinder completely empty, especially in a place of high humidity/moisture. it will cause pitting and general corrosion inside the tank.

hope this helps
