6 LP Gas

SECTION 6 • LP GAS

From RV Expert Mark Polk of RV Education 101 - www.rvonlinetraining.com

Tip #1
How much LP gas your RV gas cylinders or tank holds can be confusing. People
often refer to it in gallons and/or pounds. One gallon of LP gas weighs 4.26 pounds.

All LP gas cylinders and tanks are only filled to 80 % of their capacity to allow for
expansion when the temperature around the container rises. If you want to monitor
how much LP gas is in the cylinders consider purchasing a propane gas gauge.

Tip #2
LP gas leak detectors are audible alarms that warn you of a potential LP gas leak.
They are located close to the floor level of the RV because LP gas is heavier than air
and will settle towards the floor.

Tip #3

When you change a gas cylinder there is a possibility air will get in the gas lines. A
good habit to get into is to light the range burners after you change a cylinder. This will
help evacuate any air from the system making it easier to light the other appliances.

Tip #4

Carbon monoxide is odorless, tasteless and deadly. If your RV does not have a
carbon monoxide detector purchase and install one designed for use in RVs.
