Follow Gas Safe Register’s tips to stay gas safe while on your touring holiday Hiring – Ask if the gas appliances in your Leisure Accommodation Vehicle (LAV) have been safety-checked and serviced. If you’re holidaying in the UK in a touring caravan or motorhome the hirer must do this by law and is required to provide an up-to-date Landlord Gas Safety Record Purchasing previously used LAV - Ask the vendor to provide any servicing and maintenance records. If these can’t be supplied, ask about having the gas installation checked by a Gas Safe Registered engineer Appliances in your LAV, such as gas cookers or gas fires, will be different to those you’re used to at home. It’s a good idea to ask for copies of the appliance user guide or maintenance instructions Ask for a demonstration on how to use the gas appliances/installation, including the storage, positioning, and exchange of LPG gas cylinders Gas cookers should not be used for heating and require adequate ventilation when in use BBQ’s are only intended to be used in open, well vented spaces. Used charcoal or disposable BBQ’s must never be taken inside your motorhome or caravan during or after use as this could cause carbon monoxide poisoning Do not block any purpose provided ventilation that is installed for safety of appliances and the occupants An MOT certificate for a motorhome is not a guarantee for the safety of the gas installation Remember – badly fitted and poorly maintained gas appliances can cause gas leaks, explosions, fires and carbon monoxide poisoning, which can be fatal Recognise the signs of a gas appliance that may indicate they are unsafe. Black marks or stains around the appliance and lazy yellow or orange flames instead of crisp blue ones could be signs that a gas appliance is not working properly. Do not use them until they’ve been inspected by a qualified Gas Safe Registered engineer Carbon monoxide poisoning could be mistaken for other holiday ailments, such as food poisoning, dehydration or a hangover. Remember the six main symptoms of CO poisoning: headaches, dizziness, nausea, breathlessness, collapse, and loss of consciousness.
