Water Heater
A LP gas-distribution system distributes the gas to those appliances using such in the motorhome. The
“heart” of this LP gas distribution system is the regulator and it should only be adjusted by a qualified
service technician. Most of the problems encountered in lighting the pilots of these appliances are caused
by regulator mis-adjustments.
The major component of the LP gas supply is a pipe which runs underneath the motorhome floor. The
various gas appliances are connected by a rubber supply line.
Should any of the secondary tubing develop a leak, do not attempt to splice any of the lines. Instead,
have a qualified service technician run a new length of tubing to the appliance of concern and then have
that line leak-tested before placing it in normal operation.
To remove, repair, or replace any gas-operated appliance, always close the main gas valve at the LP tank.
