Can a Natural Gas Shut Off Valve be Installed outdoors
(OP)
Hello,
I am inquiring if a 2" natural gas shut off valve can be installed outdoors exposed to the environment. I want to know if ASME of Ashrae has any regulation on this type of installation. Thank you.

If look around your gas line control station you will see all their valves outside.

§ 192.365 Service lines: Location of
valves.
(a) Relation to regulator or meter. Each
service-line valve must be installed upstream
of the regulator or, if there is
no regulator, upstream of the meter.
(b) Outside valves. Each service line
must have a shut-off valve in a readily
accessible location that, if feasible, is
outside of the building.
(c) Underground valves. Each underground
service-line valve must be located
in a covered durable curb box or
standpipe that allows ready operation
of the valve and is supported independently
of the service lines.
