Section 7: Fuel & Propane System
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. Dur-
ing 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.

The following chart provides average propane consumption information.
Traveling With Propane
NOTE: Some states prohibit propane appliance operation during travel, es-
pecially in underground tunnels. Know the laws for the areas where you
travel.
Use care when fueling your motor fuel tanks and/or propane containers. Make certain your
propane tank is properly fastened in place.
Cooking / Comfort Heating Label
Ensure a supply of fresh air (Canada units only)
All pilot lights, appliances and their igniters (see operating instructions) should
be turned off before refueling of motor fuel tanks and/or propane containers.
These can cause ignition of flammable vapors, which can lead to a fire or
explosion.
