This may be a dumb question but if a tank that size were to somehow release all its argon in an average house, would it be dangerous?

I don't think there is a concern about suffocation.

but you should be aware that these tanks are pressurized to 2500 psi (in the states), and that can get pretty dangerous.

use a new regulator with an overpressure release valve.

myth busters did a segment where they chopped the top valve off a tank - it shot all 100lbs of steel through a cinderblock wall.
