Ventilation openings in sidewalls shall not communicate directly with other enclosures of the appliance.
Cylinder valves shall be readily accessible for hand operation. A door on the enclosure to gain access to
the cylinder valve is acceptable, provided it is non-locking and can be opened without the use of tools.
Designs using a cover to gain access to the cylinder and cylinder valve shall be provided with handles or
equivalent at a minimum of 180 degrees apart to facilitate lifting of the cover.
There shall be a minimum clearance of 2 inches (50.8mm) between the lower surface of the floor of the LP
gas supply cylinder enclosure and the ground.
The design of the enclosure shall be such that (1) the LP gas supply cylinder(s) can be connected,
disconnected and the connections inspected and tested outside the cylinder enclosure; and (2) those
connections which could be disturbed when installing the cylinder(s) in the enclosure can be leak tested
inside the enclosure.
The enclosure for the LP-gas cylinder shall isolate the cylinder from the burner compartment to provide:
a. Shielding from radiation;
b. A flame barrier; and
c. Protection from foreign material.
Be certain to mount or set the LP gas cylinder on a flat surface and restrain it using a cylinder retaining
bracket to prevent it from tipping.
The LPG supply must incorporate an approved pressure regulator with 2.75kPa outlet pressure.
