Camper Van Propane Locker & Vent Planner

← All camper van tools

Lay out an upright row of cylinders and compare vent free area with the requirements supplied for your installation.

How it works

Add cylinder diameters, spacing, and side clearance for width. Add clearance above the measured cylinder and valve assembly for height. Net free vent area is opening area multiplied by the free-area percentage from the vent supplier.

Reference: NFPA 1192: Standard on Recreational Vehicles.

What to check before you use the result

Obtain the required low and high vent areas, locations, and clearances for your specific installation before using the comparison. Zero is only appropriate for an opening your design does not require. Have a qualified installer confirm the enclosure and vent routing before any cutting or installation.
