Hi,

Does anyone know whether there is a legal requirement to cover compressed gas cycliners stored externally tp protect from extrme heat i.e. in direct sunlight.

With the recent extreme weather / heat I had identified that the external gas bottles were extremely hot and recommend either moving them to a cooler / shaded area or getting a cover for them...

any thoughts.

Compliance with BCGA Guidance Note 2 would most likely be recognised as compliance with best practice.
