co2 storage

(1/2) > >>

davidlandy:
anybody know about the legalities of storing co2 gas bottles for a mig welder at home?

Wanderer:
They are used by anyone that has their own bar in the house so I can't see there should be a problem.
Your local vintners is as good a place as any to get them filled.

I think it may be worth perhaps putting a sticker or sign on the garage door. This way in the event of a fire, the Brigade arnt going in blind. I have a small sign to go in my car, when i carry compressed air. Ie diving cylinder for my rifels.

davidlandy:
so not illegal in any way then?


...and what about an air compressor?

i am thinking compressed gases here by the way.

Wanderer:
Out of interest I have hunted and there's lots of stuff about storing it under the sea :lol:

I've never seen a pub with signs warning of the CO2 bottles. Nor any warning of a compressor being kept.  If you get above a certain amount of flammable gasses then cages are used or a storage building remote from the workshops. If you're only storing one pub sized CO2 bottle then I can't see there are many people worrying about it.

I'd be interested to know what you do find though Dave.
