Residential propane in Osceola County follows the Florida Fire Prevention Code and NFPA 58 (Florida LP-Gas Code), enforced by FDACS under FS Chapter 527. Small portable cylinders need no permit; stationary tanks over 125 gallons must be installed by a licensed dealer with proper clearances and, in flood/coastal areas, anchoring.
Florida regulates LP gas under FS Chapter 527 (administered by FDACS) and the Florida LP-Gas Code (NFPA 58), adopted into the Florida Fire Prevention Code that Osceola County enforces. Portable barbecue cylinders (up to ~40 lb) may be stored outdoors without a permit; they should not be stored inside living spaces or near basement/AC intakes. Aboveground stationary containers must meet NFPA 58 separation distances (for example, containers under 125 gallons kept at least 5 feet from ignition sources and 10 feet from direct-vent appliance intakes). Tanks over 125 gallons must be installed by a Florida-licensed LP dealer, and in flood-prone/coastal areas the Building Code requires the tank to be anchored against buoyancy.
LP-gas violations are enforced by FDACS licensing inspectors and the county Fire Marshal; improper installation can require correction and block inspection sign-off.
