DOT cylinders up through 420 lb can be placed adjacent to a structure but
a 125 gal or less ASME tank has to be 10 ft from a structure according to
NFPA 58. Other than the 12 year inspection interval is there any reason
to use ASME tanks instead of DOT cylinders when space is limited?

I recently had a situation with my insurance company on our cabin. They
said they wanted the firewood removed from under the porch, and the propane
tank moved.

Voila! Photoshop!

They approved me, and never set foot on site. I know you want to be safe,
but there is such thing as overkill.

Of course, if you ever have a claim they will deny payment
