Bottled Gases

The Facilities Management Warehouse department also operates the university's bottled gas service. Bottled gases can be ordered by calling 575-835-5844, or by filling out the Bottled Gas Request Form. Frances Smith is the point of contact for bottled gas deliveries. Cheri Lerew is the point of contact for bottle gas orders and accounting. They can also be reached by email at [email protected]

When ordering gases, please provide the following information:

• Name of department

Most gas requests can be filled from stock within the Facilities Management's cylinder cage. If the gas is not available in the cage, it can be ordered for a Thursday delivery from the gas vendor. All liquids are also handled through the weekly order system.

Deadline for Thursday delivery is 12:00pm (noon) on Tuesday. All liquids are also handled through the weekly order system.

Note: Bottled gases are strictly a campus service.
