If you enter your rig and smell propane the first thing I would do is to get the h**l out of there and shot off the propane tanks.

The LPG detector on my trailer is located in the rear of the trailer behind the lounge chairs. Very poor location. When doing the PDI I told the PDI person the trailer does not have a LPG detector. He thought that they forgot to install it at the factory but finally found it behind the chairs. Did I say a poor design.

Don,

When you relocate the detector, the manufacturer's manual may give you some guidance on where/where not to put it.

Ah - I got ya now. So that picture of my LPG detector in my 2006 Landmark was more of an ideal location in the middle of all my LP using items. Make sense. Thanks.

I guess I might have been a bit confusing. I brought it up because of this post.

sometimes, I see Heartland puts them in the rear cap wall and sometimes behind the recliners/theater seating in the door side slide in the narrow end wall.

And speaking of confusing - Bernie - this may cause more problems then you originally bargained for

That was my first thought when I first read this post.

and NEVER, ever turn any switch on or off, or use your cell when propane/gas is present!! We are actually trained to knock on doors and never ring the door bell...just in case!!

Just goes to show you that even the best of us make a mistake every once in a while. LOL

Well even with the typo it was good advice. I should have shut tanks off first.
