Section 7: Fuel & Propane System
97
If you have double cylinders on your recreation vehicle, use only one at a time. Otherwise,
the propane supply will be drawn equally from both cylinders until the supply has been
totally exhausted. Using one cylinder until it is empty, then using the second cylinder will
allow you to fill the empty cylinder at your convenience without running totally out of
propane.
Cooking With Propane Gas
Unlike homes, the amount of oxygen supply is
limited due to the size of the recreation vehicle.
Proper ventilation when using the cooking
appliance(s) will help you avoid the danger of
asphyxiation.
It is especially important that cooking
appliances not be used for comfort heating,
as the danger of asphyxiation is greater
when the appliance is used for long periods
of time. FAILURE TO COMPLY MAY
RESULT IN DEATH OR SERIOUS
INJURY.
These warning labels are
located in the cooking area to
remind the user to provide an
adequate supply of fresh air
for combustion.
Calculating Propane Gas Usage
Most RV gas appliances are operated intermittently, and each has a different BTU rating.
You will need to consider this when planning your propane supply and consumption. Unless
there is heavy use of hot water, the water heater consumption of propane is minimal. During
cool temperature or high wind conditions, furnace consumption can be extremely high.
To calculate your propane supply, take the BTU ratings for your propane appliances and
divide that into the BTU availability. Each gallon of propane gas (3.785 liters) produces
about 91,500 BTU’s (96,528 kilojoules) of heat energy.
Propane consumption chart
The following chart provides average propane consumption information.
Do not turn gas range burner controls to ON and allow gas to escape
before lighting.
Do not use portable fuel burning equipment (i.e., wood and charcoal
grills or stoves) inside the recreation vehicle.
Cooking / Comfort Heating Label
Ensure a supply of fresh air (Canada units only)
