Propane storage in Davis County follows the statewide-adopted International Fire Code and NFPA 58. Small portable cylinders are fine for home grills, but code caps how much LP-gas may be stored, bans large cylinders inside dwellings, and keeps tanks clear of ignition sources, basements, and required exits.
Utah adopts the International Fire Code (Title 15A) and, through it, NFPA 58 for liquefied petroleum gas. For one- and two-family homes, portable propane cylinders used for grills and appliances are allowed, but the fire code limits the aggregate quantity stored and prohibits storing LP-gas containers over one pound inside dwellings or in basements and other below-grade spaces. Cylinders must be kept upright, outdoors or in ventilated areas, away from heat, exits, and ignition sources. Larger stationary tanks require permitted installation with setback distances from buildings and property lines set by the fire code and local fire district review.
Improper indoor storage or oversized tanks without permits can bring fire-code citations and orders to correct or remove the hazard.
