General information
Gas Cylinders
: Bottled Liquid Petroleum Gas (LPG) is the most convenient portable source of fuel for
your Leisure Home.
▲
Never allow modifications of the electrical or Liquid Petroleum Gas systems and appliances
except by qualified persons.
▲
Never use portable cooking or heating equipment, other than electric heaters that are not
direct radiant type, as it is a fire and asphyxiation hazard.
Make sure that heating, cooking appliances and gas cylinders are switched off before the Leisure
Home is moved.
All gas appliances in your Leisure Home can have their gas supply individually isolated by turning off
the relevant tap. The tap is either located on the centrally positioned gas manifold or directly beside the
appliance.
Regularly check flexible gas hose, joints and connections for tightness.
Finally make sure that each gas appliance is working efficiently to the recommendations of the appliance
manufacturers.
The regulator is a governing device which adapts the bottle pressure to one that suits the equipment in
the Leisure Home.
▲
Some industrial LPG appliances operate at high pressure and require a ‘high pressure’
regulator. This often has an adjusting handle on it. Never use such a regulator on a
Leisure Home.
Propane and Butane gas regulators are not interchangeable.
●
Always ensure that the gas system is inspected/maintained every 12 months.
●
In the event of a fire ensure all occupants evacuate the Leisure Home via the nearest escape route.
●
If it is safe to do so turn off the yellow isolating valve located in the gas box directly below the
regulator.
●
If you suspect a gas leak then immediately turn off the supply of
gas at the yellow isolation tap located below the regulator in the
gas box. Then turn off the gas valve on the gas bottles. When
this has been completed the system must be inspected by a
competent person.
●
Never use gas bottles located outside the Leisure Home gas
box. Do not use any gas extension hoses.
●
Gas barbecue - always use gas appliances that are suitable for
use at 30mbar.
Your Leisure Home is fitted with a regulator as standard equipment.
This is located in the Leisure Home gas box mounted on the front
bulkhead of the Leisure Home between the gas bottles. The gas
regulator has a working pressure of 30mbar and is suitable for
