Gas Safety Checks

The beauty of owning a motorhome is that you can carry your creature comforts with you wherever you go, and there’s nothing better than cooking a hearty meal for you and those you’re with in your very own home on wheels. For this, though, you need gas appliances, such as a hob, cooker and fridge - and don’t forget that all-important heating for a comfortable evening! Having gas appliances in your motorhome comes with an obligation to get them regularly safety checked. 

Motorhomes generally use Liquid Petroleum Gas (LPG), which comes in the form of Butane gas and Propane gas, and it’s vital that you not only get appliances that use this fuel correctly installed, but also ensure that they’re tested for safety. It’s just the same as you would do with your gas appliances at home. In order to find out how regularly this should be, check the manufacturer guidelines on each appliance. 

Gas safety checks at AMC

At AMC, we offer gas safety checks thanks to our dedicated gas technicians, who are highly trained and qualified to install, inspect and service gas appliances using our in-house gas analyser. This bit of kit is independently calibrated every year, and the resulting certificate can be seen in our waiting area for your peace of mind.  

Beyond the regular safety inspections on your appliances, it’s important that you’re familiar with the gas system in your motorhome, how it works safely, and what to do in the case of an emergency. Our technicians are happy to answer any questions you may have in regard to this; your safety is our priority.
