Hi All

I'm doing a van conversion and am about to install the hob and gas bottle.

I've seen a lot of information about the gas locker but I can't finf out information on how the hob should be.
Does the bottom of the hob have to be sealed off ?
and does it need a dropout vent below that ?

I'd also like to get clarification on the dropout vent in the gas locker . I've been given information by two seperate very knowledgable people . One says the gas bottle must not be obscured by the cyclinder and the other person says the dropout vent can be below the cylinder due to the bottom of the cyclinder having holes in the bottom.

Any info or links would be appreciated.

Thanks !
