Can anyone give me some advice on venting my new pellet stove? The place I would like to install it has two 100lb propane tanks outside the exterior wall. Is it dangerous to vent near propane tanks?
 
There's GOTTA be minimum clearances to be met. I know there is with electrical junctions. Call yer gas company and speak to the service manager.
