Understood. Thanks guys. Usually gas cylinder is stationed under the stove but I don't feel that safe doing that so decide to put my unit outside.

Outside does not mean safe, when hot weather your enclosure need to have proper shade, you need to also make sure properly lock if not someone will steal it. Also if you going long holidayneed to go out to take out the head.

Depending on your house.
If you still have a backyard, you don't need any permit to build a concrete enclosure for your gas tank.
However, if your house is already extended till the back lane, then you can't apply for a permit either as the gas tank enclosure will be in public property. No approval will be given.

So either way, you won't have a permit.
Seeing that many houses are using this, I guess you can safely do it.

Since you are selling your service as a ID/contractor, I don't think you should be encouraging people to go against the law.
It makes you look unprofessional. Just my opinion.

Thank you for your good advice. Yes my house still got back yard so I guess I don't need permit then.

just got back fr seeing a draughtsman. cost for drawing, architect's certification and submission, RM3k. gas tank if constructed over the drain behind the house on council land, is not allowed. wish MPPP is like MPSP with ready plans for sale at minimal cost. 3k is worth it for the 30 year old terrace reno but for the minimal reno of the new house, it sure is not. my reno cost for the new house is only RM3k. hmm.

appreciated your opinion,
but your small opinion also have abit meaning of "durn" to me...

1) I not encourage ppl to against the law
2) can you define the term "small small reno" - building fish pool go for permit? extend 10'x3' awning go for permit? extend a 6'x5' dog house go for permit?
3) If my customer willing to submit the plan, I am very Happy to do so for them
4) But the fact is most of the customer I deal have another thinking that you understand
5) In fact, for most of the house extension, my first question is alwasy "You want submit plan or not" ..

So please do not judge my professional as you and me do not know each other.
If you not happy with my answer, I can show you all the previous year quotation that I have include the submission cost to customer, and you may direct contact my customer to ask them whether is I encourage them not to submit or they telling me don't need to submit ..

Thank....
