Safe Use of LPG
5.1 The LPG system
Your Gas System should have been connected
and commissioned by a registered Gas Safe
Engineer engaged by your Park or Siting Agent.
If this is not the case then in the general
interests of your safety and others that may use
this RPH, you should have the gas installation
and appliances properly commisioned and
checked for safety by a competent Gas Safe
registered engineer. This should be carried out
after the RPH has been sited but before a gas
supply is connected.
The inlet connection is the start point of the
RPHs gas system and will be found at the rear
of the Home.
5.2 Gas commissioning notice
The gas commisioning notice is fitted to
the rear of the boiler cupboard door. We
recommend that the registered Gas Safe
engineer completes this notice at the time of
commissioning the new RPH. This record of first
commissioning should not be removed.
Installation Company:
Gas Safe registration No:
Commissioning date:
Engineer’s name:
Engineer’s signature:
If the RPH is to be let out on a permanently
or short term basis then, law (The Gas Safety
(Installation and use) (Amendment) Regulations
2018 and other more general health and safety
legislation) the current owner or someone
acting as their agent must ensure that:
• Commissioning checks and servicing of gas
installations and gas appliances are carried
out by a Gas Safe registered engineer.
• The gas appliances are checked for safety
at least once a year by a Gas Safe registered
engineer
• A record of the engineers safety check
is prominently displayed in the unit for
occupants to see.
• If the unit is being used solely for private use,
other than commissioning, these checks
are not required by law, but it is STRONGLY
RECOMMENDED that the owner has them
carried out and retains a record of the annual
safety checks on appliances.
• By law only competent persons can carry
out gas installation and servicing work. Do
not attempt to work on the gas installation
yourself, as to do so could be illegal and/or
dangerous and could put yourself or others
at risk.
• Use only propane LPG at a pressure of
37mbar.
• Never use appliances with a different working
pressure
Propane remains fully operational down to
temperatures as low as -43 degrees. There are
a variety of sizes and shapes of cylinders in
which the gasses are stored. Consult your Park
owner who will advise you the amount of gas
needed based upon your RPHs specification
and your particular family or individual
requirements.
The LPG installation and LPG appliances in your
RPH should be checked annually by a Gas Safe
registered operative. Contact your Park, Siting
Agent or Gas Safe on 0800 408 5500 for a list
of recommended Gas Safe Engineers.
5.3 Using cylinders
What happens inside the cylinder
Calor gas cylinders are specifically
manufactured to store LPG gas in its liquid state
which then turns to gas filling the space above
the liquid. As gas is drawn off in use, more liquid
turns to gas to replace it.
An external regulator (See 5.4 Gas Regulator
section) connected to the supply line between
the cylinder and appliance keeps the pressure
of the gas constant to the appliance as the
cylinder empties until there is no liquid left to
turn to gas.
