Medical Gas Cylinder and Bulk Tank Storage
by Mark Chrisman, Ph.D., PE.
This monograph summarizes storage requirements for medical gas cylinders, including bulk tank storage, in health care occupancies. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) and accrediting organizations (AOs) require compliance with the 2012 editions of NFPA 99, Health Care Facilities Code and NFPA 101®, Life Safety Code®, therefore this monograph references those editions of the codes.
