Propane Tank Rental Fee

I was told by a broker that the landlord is responsible for the propane tank rental fee that covers cooking in the rental property (and the tenant would be responsible for setup fees and actual propane).  He further stated this is because the tank and lines are permanent fixtures to the house and the tenant would have no way of providing their own tank if they desired.  Does anyone know what Florida Statute or law would cover this requirement?  The lease does not mention propane gas at all, but states specifically which utilities are to be paid by the tenant and which are to be paid by the landlord.  (There are also 2 fireplaces, which would use the propane, but they are not functional).  I understand the lease needs to be updated.
