How should LP gas containers be stored to ensure safety?

LP gas containers must be stored in well-ventilated areas away from flammable materials to minimize the risk of fire or explosion. Proper ventilation allows any gas that may leak to disperse safely into the atmosphere, instead of accumulating in confined spaces where it could create a dangerous situation. Storing containers away from flammable materials further reduces the potential for a fire hazard, as any ignition source near the flammable materials can lead to a catastrophic event if gas is present.

The focus on ventilation and distance from flammable materials is crucial for maintaining safety. Unlike the other options, which may not provide adequate protection against potential hazards associated with LP gas, well-ventilated storage options comply with safety regulations and industry standards.
