propane

So propane tanks should never be painted black or a dark color: So why are almost all of the propane tank covers I see, includng mine, are black? Especially in case of traveling in 100 or higher degree heat?

Hi there, love the forums. I'm new to the RV life and had an interesting sequence of events shortly after buying my 2022 FR3 32ds that has me a little worried/perplexed and I was hoping for a little input. After a long drive in very high temperatures we were waiting in a line of cars to get...

Bought this camper last summer assuming it had a propane quick connect as it’s a 2021. Am I blind not being able to find one? I crawled underneath of it several times following propane lines from the splitter but they all seem accounted for. There’s only three coming off the splitter and best...

I have an FR3 32DS (2022) with the outdoor propane accessory port. If I run out of on-board propane, can I “back fill” with a portable tank attached to the accessory port? Of course this would only be a temporary fix on emergencies if possible.

We are fell time stationary while we work on our property. Full hook up. So my understanding of the furnace systems here is that I have 2 AC units and a heat pump in the middle and propane. Turned on the heat to electric hoping to save propane because we went thru a 30# tank in 2.5 days. That's...

Hello, I have a 2019 A122 A-Frame and am putting in a new CO/Propane detector. When I purchased the camper used it was missing. Is anyone able to provide a picture of how the wiring connects to the device (its a Safe-T-Alert 25-742 model detector)? Its all underneath the the bench in front...

2013 Georgetown 329DS My SAFE-T-ALERT RV Carbon Monoxide / Propane Gas Detector Model 70-42-R-Kit needs to be replaced. It's at the end of it's life. The unit is made by MTI Industries. They are showing the unit out of stock and suggest replacing it with a 25-742-Kit-TR-WT. This unit has...

Hello, New to the forum and working on getting some questions answered. There is a two way switch at the propane fill that has no markings. Would this be a propane cut-off switch to cut propane to the unit? Randy Just traded in our Thor 24DS Benz for Isata 5 35DS

My son took the motorhome to a dirt bike rally. He hooked the blackstone up to the port on the back(first time to try this). He said he could just barely keep it lit and cook on it. Is this normal?

Since this cuts across appliances and HVAC, I thought I'd post the question in the General Tech Topics area... The updated app for my Mopeka tank sensors has settings for the size and orientation of the tanks (in my case, 30 lb. vertical) and now ratio of propane to butane. In the past, the...

Just wondering if anyone has had this problem. I have a 2019 2509s. My refrigerator (Dometic) will not stay running on propane. It will light and run until it cools off. It seems to run normal for a few cycles and then shuts off with the error light on. The refrigerator runs just fine on shore...

I have a 2014 ROO 23SS. The camper has a Suburban NT-20SQ unit. When plugged in to shore power or generator the heater works fine. I believe this is because the fan turns a little bit faster on shore power and will activate the sail switch. When on battery power the fan will blow for about...

The propane regulator on our 2022 Cedar Creek Champagne 38EL is offering confusing indications, and I think it's broken and needs to be replaced. The indicator definitely moves when you close off the in-use tank, but it doesn't show all red or all green - except in rare cases. The attached...

What propane level sensor does everyone use. I purchased these from Mopeka and love them...

Had 2 30lb tanks of propane filled on Monday. Set thermostat to 56. Left Mon. Returning Sat. afternoon..... What are the chances of having any propane left when I return on Sat? Temps: Mon. H 46 LOW 32 Tue H 42 LOW 30 Wed H 48 LOW 27 Thu H38 LOW 24 Fri H52 LOW 16...

Hello everyone! I need to change my propane hose that connects the stationary tank to the RV system. i have a 2008 georgetown 357xl. can you help me with a link of the model i need? they are not found here in Italy. thank you all

335LRLE fifth wheel. Typical 2 propane tanks forward, one on each side. It appears that both tanks feed a tee, that feeds the outside grill port on door side and the water heater, furnace, and the range in the slide. No where have I found an automatic changeover nor check valves that would...

We have several members currently stating their personal preferences on using the propane cylinders auto changeover valve. I thought this may be a good time to add a fun poll to see how many do or do not use it as intended. Of course this poll is just going to be consisting of our community who...

So I'm a fairly new rv owner. I bought a Salem FSX a few months ago. I'm staying in it pretty regularly and wondering how long the typical propane tank should last. I know that's kind of a loaded question but wondering because of winter coming and I'll most likely still be in it till Jan/Feb...

I just acquired a 2022 Flagstaff 228BHSE popup camper from the original owner, so no warranty coverage. I cannot get the cooktop burners to light. (It appears they've never been lit.) All other gas appliances work just fine. I suspect it may be the 'button' under the swing-away galley. Propane...

Ive been through a few other modifications to my cooking systems. We have a cast iron 3 burner stove and have had several grills trying to find the perfect fit for us. The stove came with its own regulator and was designed to operate on High Pressure direct from a propane tank. Running it on...

The test button on the CO/Propane alarm keeps going off, but says to replace after 60 mos. The 60-month deadline would be up two years ago. Do I need to change the alarm and is this a DYI? Anyone know the cost?

Learning to do my own repairs/upgrades which includes some not so smart moves. Long story short: replaced factory installed co2/propane detector over a year ago. Poor decision. Need to re-install the original detector; don't remember which wires I cut nor did I make notes nor apparently mark...

Hello: I am winter camping this year and just bought a 100 lb propane tank, which I want to add to the two 20 lb bumper pull tanks. The connection on the 100 lb tank has internal threads while the connectors on the 20 lb tanks have external threads. I've seen the Camco Extend-a-Stay kits. I'll...
