Gaslow

Remove that gas bottle sign (hair dryer and sharp fingernails should do the job) as you don't want anyone knowing what you have in there or replace with something distasteful i.e. "danger toilet emptying point"
 
I think having the LPG sign is a requirement so Fire persons know where it is located.

Our toilet cassette has a Warning Sign similar to the LPG Safety Warning Sticker; but the text reads: 'DANGER, give it at least 10 minutes before Using' ... :p And NO SMOKING!

I have never met that one, that is not to say you are wrong just that I am unaware of any such requirement. If mandatory, then maybe I should have one but with the steal-ability of such things it is worrying. I am staying as I am until told otherwise by authority, not that they are going to know what I have and where. Yet another thing to worry about eh?

Just get a LPG sticker and put it on the locker door, or if under the van then on the back of the van all vans will have them, as far as any scrote knows it could be a Calor bottle.
 
Funnily enough when I installed my fridge, in order to get the warranty, I was obliged to get a gas safety chap in to check my installation and he, having gone through it like the proverbial dose of salts, pronounced the whole installation "very impressive" but made no mention of any signage requirement. I am leaving it as it is.
 
Your choice, I just responded to your post earlier, do you live near Trev?

As I am the only person who has posted a photo, I am guessing this instruction is aimed at me?

Question. Why should I? Why should I care if someone knows I have a Gas bottle in a Gas locker? And why would I want to put a sign proclaiming something distasteful?
Some folk seem to live in a constant state of Paranoia and Worry! You stay there and leave me out!
 
You are probably right Wildebus. If no one had mentioned it, I would have probably never given it a thought. However what my rambling researches did turn up was:-
"There are no requirements for campervans with gas onboard to display an LPG or compressed gas sticker to the vehicle’s exterior, unlike work vehicles.
Although, it is highly recommended because it notifies the emergency services that gas is present if your vehicle is involved in a road accident."
So I am sticking to the status quo

If I stop to tell you about my paranoia, David, they might catch up with me ... :p. On a serious note, if the legislation says a Sticker must be affixed, then, whether I agree with the law or not, I need to affix said Sticker. Because if anything goes wrong, and there is an explosion or similar, the Sticker's absence is an invitation for Loss Adjusters to refuse the Claim. Or, an unlucky spot inspection to get you a roadside fine or similar

Gasit seems to think they are mandatory, I can't see any sensible reason not to have one.

The Burstner Owner's Manual has a VERY prominent section in the Gas Services Section about displaying the Safety Sticker, Kev. Don't think even Stevie Wonder could miss the message, but Burstner is German, and they do love their rules [except when it comes to reserving Sun Loungers and riding ebikes on footpaths in damn great roadtrains like geriatric Rommel impersonators...] :p

My understanding is that stickers are NOT mandatory (at least not in the UK).
But like the one-eyed bear, I can't see a reason NOT to have one if it could be of benefit in an incident, so I'll not be getting the Hair dryer out and sharpening my nails...

Yeah, but you know you want to.
 
It’s the NCC that states you shall have a sticker, they are just a trade body so it just what they think rather than and proper regulation. It’s not impossible insurers would often to the NCC though
 
Hi so here is my gas set up at the moment.
Are the same fittings used to attach the filler to the bracket as fitted through a skirt or door?20230121_140119.jpg
 
I had a 90 angle on mine, they also have a inner and outer cup too and the valance would be sandwiched between them.

This is a simple video of my setup (Gaslow and Gasit parts are interchangeable I made it for a friend just to explain it but you would use the same cups and the brass parts you may or may not need a 90 elbow behind the inlet.

Starts part way in as it was also to allow a refillable and Calor for best of both worlds.

Hole sizes are regarding going through a 1" thick wall you don't need that, and you can also see the 90 elbow I used.
