Florida Statutes, Rules & Licensing Requirements (Chapter 527) (Questions 1–19)
Q1: Under Florida Statute Chapter 527, what is the minimum age requirement for an individual to
qualify for a Category I license to install, service, or repair LP gas systems?
A. 16 years old
B. 18 years old [CORRECT]
C. 21 years old
D. 25 years old
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Florida Statute 527.02 requires that all LP gas qualifiers be at least 18 years of age, which
ensures that licensees have reached legal adulthood and can be held fully accountable for their work
and decisions in the field.
Q2: A contractor holds a Category I license and wants to add a Category II endorsement for appliance
installation. Which requirement must be met before the endorsement can be added?
A. Complete 40 hours of continuing education
B. Pass the Category II examination and meet the experience requirements for that category [CORRECT]
C. Work under a Category II qualifier for 6 months
D. Purchase additional liability insurance
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Each category endorsement requires passing the specific examination and demonstrating the
requisite experience for that category, because the knowledge and skills for appliance installation differ
significantly from system installation and repair.
,Q3: A master qualifier for an LP gas company is required to be actively involved in the daily operations of
the business. Which activity best demonstrates active involvement as defined by Florida law?
A. Reviewing financial statements monthly
B. Being physically present at the place of business during normal working hours and supervising LP gas
operations [CORRECT]
C. Attending annual safety meetings
D. Signing off on completed job permits
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Active involvement means the master qualifier is regularly present and directly engaged in
overseeing the company's LP gas operations, not merely performing administrative or ceremonial duties
from a distance.
Q4: A qualifier's license is set to expire on June 30. The qualifier submits the renewal application on July
15. Which statement about the renewal is accurate?
A. The license is automatically renewed with a late fee
B. The license has lapsed and the qualifier must retake the examination [CORRECT]
C. The license can be renewed within 60 days with a penalty
D. The license remains valid during the renewal processing period
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Florida law requires renewal before the expiration date, and failure to do so results in license
lapse, which means the qualifier must reapply and retake the examination to regain active status.
Q5: Under Florida Statute 527.02, which individual is authorized to take the master qualifier
examination?
A. Any employee of an LP gas company with 2 years of experience
B. A qualifier who has held an active qualifier license for at least 1 year and meets the experience
requirements [CORRECT]
C. A business owner who has never held a qualifier license
D. A journeyman with 6 months of field experience
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The master qualifier examination is reserved for individuals who have already demonstrated
competency as a qualifier and have accumulated sufficient experience to oversee an entire company's
LP gas operations safely and legally.
, Q6: A company is applying for an LP gas dealer license in Florida. Which insurance requirement must be
met?
A. General liability insurance of at least $100,000
B. General liability insurance of at least $1,000,000 [CORRECT]
C. Workers' compensation insurance only
D. No insurance is required if the company has fewer than 5 employees
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Florida requires LP gas dealers to carry a minimum of $1,000,000 in general liability insurance
to protect the public and ensure financial responsibility in the event of accidents, property damage, or
injuries.
Q7: A qualifier is convicted of a felony involving fraud. Which consequence will most likely affect the
qualifier's LP gas license?
A. No consequence if the felony is unrelated to LP gas work
B. License suspension or revocation following review by the Department of Agriculture [CORRECT]
C. Automatic license reinstatement after 1 year
D. A mandatory fine of $500
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Criminal convictions, particularly those involving dishonesty or moral turpitude, reflect on the
individual's fitness to hold a license, and the Department has the authority to suspend or revoke licenses
after due process to protect public safety.
Q8: A company employs three qualifiers. One qualifier leaves the company. How many days does the
company have to replace the qualifier before the dealer license is affected?
A. 15 days
B. 30 days [CORRECT]
C. 60 days
D. 90 days
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Florida allows a 30-day grace period for a company to replace a departed qualifier, which
provides reasonable time for recruitment while ensuring that companies do not operate indefinitely
without proper qualified supervision.
