C. Framing Enclosure for LP Gas Supply

System

If you build an enclosure for an LP gas cylinder, follow

these recommended specifications and local codes:

Ventilation

Enclosures must be ventilated by openings at the level

of the cylinder valve and at floor level. Effectiveness

must

be determined with the cylinder(s) in place.

• One side of the enclosure must be completely open

or,

• For an enclosure having four sides, a top and a bot-

tom:

- At least two ventilation openings at cylinder valve level

shall be provided in the side wall, equally sized, spaced

at 180 degrees (3.14 rad), and unobstructed. Each

opening must have a total free area of not less than 1/2

square inch per pound (3.2 sq.

capacity and not less than a total free area of 10 square

inches (64.5 sq. cm).

- Ventilation opening(s) must be provided at floor level

and shall have a total free area of not less than 1/2

square inch per pound (3.2 sq. cm/kg) of stored fuel

capacity and not less than a total free area of 10 square

inches (64.5 sq. cm). If ventilation openings at floor lev-

el are in a side wall, there must be a least two open-

ings. The bottom of the openings must be at floor level

and the upper edge can't be more than 5 in. (127 mm)

above the floor. The openings must be equally sized,

spaced at 180 degrees (3.14 rad) and unobstructed.

- Every opening must have minimum dimensions to

permit the entrance of a 1/8 inch (3.2 mm) diameter

rod.

cm/kg)

of stored fuel

Accessibility

• Cylinder valves must be readily accessible for hand

operation. A door on the enclosure to gain access to

the cylinder valves is acceptable, provided it is non-

locking and can be opened without the use of tools.

• The design of the enclosure must be such that:

- The LP gas supply cylinder(s) can be connected, dis-

connected and the connections inspected and tested

outside the cylinder enclosure.

- Those connections which could be disturbed when

installing the cylinder(s) in the enclosure can be leak

tested inside the enclosure.

- Be certain to mount or set the LP gas cylinder on a flat

stable surface and retain it to prevent it from tipping.

Minimum Clearances

• There must be a minimum clearance of 2 in. (50.8

mm) between the lower surface of the floor of the LP

gas supply cylinder enclosure and the ground.
