compartment have been equipped with a protective cover. Make sure
that the regulator vent faces downward and that the cover is kept in
place to minimize vent blockage which could result in excessive gas
pressure causing fire, explosion, death or serious injury.
LP GAS CONSUMPTION
Most gas appliances are operated intermittently. Unless there is heavy use of hot water, the
water heater consumption is minimal. During freezing weather and high wind conditions,
furnace consumption can be extremely high.
LP gas consumption depends upon the length of time appliances are operated. Each gallon
(3.86 liters) of LP gas produces about 91,500 BTUs (46,514 kilojoules) of heat energy.
Following is a list of typical RV appliance consumption when turned on fully for one hour
of operation:

LP Detector
All recreation vehicles with an LP gas system
require a LP gas leak detection device (Fig. 24) for
safety protection. A converter or auxiliary battery
is required to supply 12-volt DC energy to operate
the leak detector. Carefully read, understand and
follow the information supplied by the LP detector
manufacturer which is supplied with your trailer.
Consult with your independent, authorized dealer
and/or visit the manufacturer’s website at
if you have any questions
on the operation or maintenance of this detector.
I
WARNING: For your safety, make sure that the LP gas detector is
properly maintained and functioning. The detector requires 12-volt DC
energy through the converter or from an auxiliary battery to operate.
Without a proper energy source, the detector will not work and you will
not be warned of leaking LP gas.
