    Default A/C condensing unit location?

    I have never heard of this code and have searched the code book. I may be looking in the wrong place for a code that states that the outside A/C condensing unit cannot be installed within three feet of the gas meter. Is this a code and if so what is it?

    The meter can not be withing 3' of an ignition source. The condenser is considered a source of ignition. Don't have the code in front of me, I'm sure I have seen it in Code Check.
