48 hours is longer than any outage here that I am aware of. 48 hours is longer than I have. 48 hours might be a Florida requirement for certain care facilities and therefore a useful time to shoot for. 48 hours is a LOT longer than I would like to live without AC in a Florida summer.
These rules are a national standard.
You mention Amerigas. Fine.....here's from their website. They also state 10' rule. Also...the tank MUST be on a slab....clearly these are not!
