LP-GAS HOSE INSPECTION
It is suggested by the hose manufacturer that the LP-Gas supply hoses used on the motorhome
undergo regular inspection. As a guideline, we suggest that all flexible LP-Gas lines connecting the
slide-out, appliances and tanks be inspected in the spring and fall of each year by a qualified RV techni-
cian.
According to the manufacturer, inspection should consist of the following procedures, and per-
formed when the hose is not under pressure:
1.
INSPECTION:
Inspect the outside cover of the hose for blistering, abrasion or cuts and
coupling slippage. Cuts in the hose cover that expose or damage the reinforcement are
cause for replacement. Hose strength is controlled by the plies of reinforcement and damage
in this area cannot be tolerated. Small cuts, nicks, or gouges that do not go completely
through the cover are not cause for replacement of the hose.
NOTE:
Pricking of the cover in the manufacture of this type of hose is common and necessary
for satisfactory hose performance. Consequently, the uniformly pricked cover should not
be viewed with alarm.
2. Damage to the textile reinforcement or wire braid is cause for hose replacement. Wire braid
reinforced hose, which has been kinked or flattened so as to permanently deform the wire
braid in the unpressurized state, shall be removed from service.
3. Blistering or loose outer cover is cause for hose replacement.
4. Examine couplings for slippage. Slippage is evidenced by the misalignment of the hose and
coupling and/or the scored or exposed area where slippage has occurred. Any evidence of
slippage is cause for hose replacement.
5. It is important that if a damaged LP-Gas hose is found, the source of the damage be deter-
mined and corrected prior to the replacement of the LP-Gas hose.
NOTE:
Only a qualified RV technician should complete replacement of LP-Gas components.
It is also suggested, that the flexible LP-Gas supply lines on your recreational vehicle be replaced
every ten (10) years. The manufacturer of the LP-Gas supply lines recommended this schedule after per-
forming extended testing and determining that the failure rate may increase after this period of time.
The motorhome manufacturer recommends following these guidelines to assure continued safety and
dependable use.
