INSTALLATION - ENCLOSURES
ENCLOSURES FOR THE GRILL AND LP
GAS CYLINDER
Grill and LP Gas Cylinder enclosures must meet the
requirements for venting, cylinder retention, and separation of
the LP gas cylinder from a heat source as outlined in the
ANSI Standard for Outdoor Cooking Gas Appliances,
Z21.58/CSA 1.6 for LP enclosures.
There are 2 types of enclosures:
1. Grill enclosure without an LP gas cylinder.
2. Grill enclosure with an LP gas cylinder.
WARNING: Do not store a spare cylinder in an enclosure.
Enclosures for LP gas cylinders must be fitted with a cylinder
retention device. A Broil King® cylinder retention device is
available from your dealer.
WARNING: Vents are required in the enclosures to
provide ventilation in the event of a gas leak.
Ventilation reduces moisture and provides cooling in the
enclosures.
Note: The drawings are for reference only.
•
Each vent shall have minimum openings to allow the
entrance of a 1/8" (3.2mm) diameter rod
•
Make sure the vents are not blocked by interior supports.
•
Keep vents clean and clear of obstructions
•
Vent(s) can be located in low visibility areas and should
be protected by screens to prevent rodents and insects
from entering the enclosure
•
Vents that provide a minimum free area of 10 square
inches (65 square cm) and vents that provide a minimum
free area of 20 square inches (130 square cm) are
available from your dealer
•
Gas supply shut off valves must be readily accessible for
hand operation
•
A door on the enclosure to gain access to the cylinder
valve is acceptable provided it is non-locking and can be
opened without the use of tools
•
A minimum clearance of 2 inches (51mm) is required
between the floor of an lp gas cylinder enclosure and the
ground
•
If a gas leak should occur or the lp gas cylinder should
vent in the lp gas cylinder enclosure, the gas should not
be allowed to vent or migrate into empty or "hollow" areas
of the enclosure
WARNING: Ventilation openings should only
communicate with the outside of the enclosure, so that
the gas can dissipate outside of the enclosure.
