Motorhome LPG Safety — Essential Guidance for Every Motorhomer
Always Store in the External Gas Locker
Gas cylinders must be stored upright in a ventilated external locker — never inside the motorhome living space.
Turn Off When Travelling
Always close the cylinder valve before moving off. Gas should only be on when the vehicle is stationary and occupied.
Check Connections Regularly
Inspect hoses and connections for cracks or wear. Replace rubber hoses every 5 years.
Use the Correct Regulator
Propane and butane require different regulators. Using the wrong one is dangerous. Check your motorhome manual or ask our team.
Inspect Hoses & Connections
Check rubber hoses for cracking or wear. Replace every 5 years or immediately if you spot damage. Fit a hose-end valve for added safety.
Fit a Carbon Monoxide Alarm
A CO alarm is essential in any motorhome with gas appliances. Test it before every trip and replace batteries regularly.
Never Refuel Near Open Flames
When exchanging cylinders, ensure all gas appliances are off and there are no ignition sources nearby.
