I am in South
Australia. For
insurance purposes I had to be gas compliant. This required a sealed metal box for the gas cylinders, vented with a downsloped pipe of 40mm min diameter. I already had copper pipe to the
stove. The fridge was pipe with a flexible section at the fridge end.
Whilst it was all a pain in the bum to build a metal box with a door to access the bottles to turn them on and off plus the expense of a plumber, I am very wary of LPG.
New
regulations are a pain but in the end, I am happy to know that I have done everything to minimise an explosion.
We are not allowed to place cylinders on swim platforms or anywhere they might suffer
collision from any other vessel or object.
The regs are a big fat book.
The number of boats that I see with non compliant setups is staggering. Others using garden hose for connections.
What are some people smoking?
