New Code For Cylinders
The LP Gas Association has published a revision
of Code of Practice 24 Part 1: 2006 – Use of Lpg Cylinders
at Residential and Similar Premises. The new Code brings together
and expands the 1998 editions of Code of Practice 24 Parts 1
and 2, which have been withdrawn.
The new Code gives guidance
to dealers, stockists, installers and authorities for the installation
and safe use of lpg in cylinders
at residential and similar premises. It covers the use of:
- Lpg
cylinders located out of doors supplying appliances via a
fixed pipework installation, including the design and construction
of cylinder enclosures
- Propane cylinders indoors for maintenance
purposes by tradesmen, e.g. plumbers and heating engineers,
whose presence in residential
premises is generally on a temporary or limited time basis
- Butane
cylinders indoors
- Lpg cylinders outside dwellings supplying
appliances for leisure purposes, e.g. barbecues, patio
heaters.
The Code can be ordered
via the LPGA’s website at www.lpga.co.uk
