Another cautionary note besides whether the Fire Marshall approves is what “flame test”  are you attempting-  there has been much  discussion on this List regarding the Rainbow demonstration involving methanol and open  flames-  not  a  recommended practice.

I work  in a charter high school and we are in a temporary school building with out any gas connection in the lab.

I would like to know is it ok to use propane camping burners for labs involving flames.(flame test).Any legal issues??

I had used small portable burners in the past ,but it is running out quick. Any help appreciated.
