Propane appliances and equipment
You must follow the instructions and warnings provided in the owner’s manual for propane
gas-fired equipment as well as those listed below.
• Annual maintenance of propane appliances and equipment should be performed
by an approved reseller or a repair centre.
• Insects may build nests in propane appliance and equipment burners.
The burner opening must be cleaned by an approved reseller or a repair centre
when circumstances or conditions justify. We suggest you do this each year.
Propane gas leak test
Inspect all propane gas lines and accessories, including connections to appliances which
may have potential damage and leaks.
Apply or spray an approved gas detection solution or use a half-and-half blend of water
and dish soap with a high concentration of soap. Spray each propane gas junction and
connection. If there is a leak, bubbles of increasing size will appear and indicate the
location of the leak.
If there is a leak, contact a specialist to perform the repair.
Although your propane system was carefully inspected for leaks before delivery, gas
connections can loosen due to vibration during transit. Consult a specialist if you notice
anomalies.
You can spray spider insecticide around propane appliances outside
your trailer to prevent them from building nests.
