Propane gas bottles

Options
It says not to store them inside then says to store them in a dry place :confused:

So where do you store your gas bottles?

    I don't have a shed unfortunately. I have a garage and a small outhouse(cellar) - either of those do?

    I would not keep it in the house. It should be kept where there is pleanty of ventelation ibn case of leaks. Bear in mind that the gas is heaveyer than air and will pool at a lower level. ( That is why caravans have those cut outs in the floor )

    If you do not have anywhere suitable, keep it out doors.
    I used to be indecisive but now I am not sure.

    Mine are outside in all weathers with the regulator sealed in a plastic bag as we have no mains gas here. All my house down here have been the same no probs in 4 years. Paying about £35 a year to keep a double oven going well chuffed

    Thanks everyone. I see they make covers for bottles as well as barbecues. Perhaps these would do?
