- Give each backyard room its own safe setup. Shared cylinders running through walls cause problems. Each room should have its own compliant cylinder position, regulator and ventilation.
- Exchange, do not decant. Decanting is illegal and dangerous. Buy gas only where branded cylinders are exchanged.
- Cages protect your investment. A bolted cage usually costs less than replacing a single stolen cylinder.
- Certificates help landlords. A registered installer's certificate for each room protects the landlord if there is an incident and keeps insurers satisfied.
