Gas is heavy. That is what the grill in the bottom of the door is for.

If you looked at the sensor and how it was configured you'd quickly spot the safeguards in place. The one thing the sensor won't do is ignite the gas.Quote:

I have a friend with a dead father… because the lpg stove exploded whilst he was in his van.
If it’s ****ed, replace it.. or use something else to cook for a while.
How did they all survive?

I have bought a PEEL MD220 sensor that CAN be installed, and hopefully will be this week in Port Headland.
MARINE AND CARAVAN DETECTORS - Peel Electronics
This model comes with TWO sensors and a mechanical LPG cutoff.
Sensor placement?
There is a fold down/open shoe cupboard under the stove that should be a great spot, the other side of the van has the lpg fridge and lpg (trauma?) heater. The heater install took many hours (in QLD ) and only done last Christmas and is directly below the fridge. Wont a "leaking fridge escape through the lower fridge side vent anyway?
It could be worse.. I could have waited 18months for the new van to be delivered only to be told at handover "Sorry but no"
