Propane regulator on side of house, snow cover


Would it be easy to cut a gallon milk jug to put over it?

A subject line that's three times as long as the post itself. Priceless!

There's a natural gas meter hidden under this. I made it with vinyl

1x2's and 1x4's. No ripping, just cut to length and pocket screwed together. Lots of pocket screws. ;-)

Since the meter (and regulator) are typically exposed, I don't worry about snow getting through the slats. Don't know about propane stuff.

Common sense would say that vents need to be kept open. There are ventless regulators. You might ask your propane supplier about one if a cover isn't practical.
