H25.0.2
Most natural gas systems and all LP gas systems have a service regulator located near the point where the
gas piping enters the building.
The propane tank will normally have an additional fi rst stage regulator located at the tank outlet valve. All of
these regulators (located outdoors) will have a vent. (Figure 2)
It is important for these vents to remain clear. Do not allow moisture, which could freeze, to build up in the vent.
If you see moisture building up in the regulator vent, contact your gas supplier.
H3.29
OBSTRUCTION OF THE AIR VENT ON AN LP (PROPANE) CYLINDER OR TANK REGULATOR
CAN CAUSE EXPLOSION OR FIRE RESULTING IN PROPERTY DAMAGE, SEVERE
PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH.
YOUR GAS SUPPLIER SHOULD PERIODICALLY INSPECT AND CLEAN THE AIR VENT
SCREEN TO PREVENT ANY OBSTRUCTION. KEEP PROTECTIVE REGULATOR COVER IN
PLACE, AS EXPOSURE TO THE ELEMENTS CAN CAUSE ICE BUILDUP AND REGULATOR
FAILURE.
