LP gas expands 1½% for each 10° increase in temperature. It is imperative to leave
sufficient space inside the container to allow for the natural expansion of gas during
warmer weather. Each propane container is equipped with an overfill device built into the
main valve. This device must remain open during the filling. When the container is filled
to 80%, the maximum level for safety, a liquid will appear replacing the vapor. Stop filling
immediately and close both valves; HAND TIGHTEN ONLY.
WARNING:
A propane container should never be filled beyond 80% of its
capacity.
If your LP container becomes overfilled and is not allowed to “bleed off” before
installation to the RV system, it may gain pressure from exposure to direct sunlight and
will begin “blowing off” pressure from the overflow valve. This will be detected by the
strong odor around the LP container. Keep open flames away from this area. It is best to
find a technician qualified in releasing an overfill from the container. If that is not possible,
remove the container, take it to a safe area at least twenty-five feet from any source of
combustion, and “bleed off” the excess pressure by opening the valve slightly and closing
it when discharge has been sufficient, one to two minutes.
WARNING:
LP gas containers are equipped with safety devices which
relieve excess pressure by discharging gas into the atmosphere. Do not bring
or store LP gas containers, gasoline or other flammable liquids inside the
recreational vehicle. Disregarding this warning may result in fires or explo-
sions.
When an LP container gets low, sometimes there is a concentration of garlic-like odor
which may be mistaken for a gas leak. After a change over to a full container, the odor
usually will disappear. If not, turn off the LP containers and have the system checked by
a qualified technician.
