In this two-part series,we are going to discuss propane tank locations as outlined in the Federal guidelines of NFPA 58.For the purpose of this article,we will break this into two categories.The first will be about propane tanks with a capacity of 120 gallons or fewer,which is the largest size allowed up against a house or building.The second will concern 250 gallons tanks and larger that have different codes and requirements that need to be followed.It shall be also noted that although the NFPA 58 is the national guideline for tank locations,all local codes must be adhered to as well.The general rule of thumb is to follow the code that is more strict,whether that be the NFPA codes or local codes.
