Gas conundrum, help/advice needed please.

[Landy Andy]

Adrias come with crash safe gas, and don’t cut the hab power whilst driving (that’s a UK van thing). My Adria has a fan heater in the rear that uses the engine heat too.

Just found the answer to my own question! Seems the system below has a crash sensor.

We fitted this from that supplier.
Filling cap on the rear bumper, and you can get various national adaptors.
Yes, it cuts out if the pipe is cut etc, and you can add a level sensor.

Gas filler in a bumper ?

Bad description.
The plastic on the side rear quarter. Not bumper.

Our current German built PVC has Webasto diesel heating which we really like. We usually carry one gas bottle of LPG for hot water/cooking. This frees up a bit of space in the cabinet for other bits and pieces and cuts down on weight. As most of our travelling is in Europe we have a German LPG bottle(s) which we tend to use most of the time, with a UK one with an adaptor that I switch too on the few occasions we travel in the van in UK.
The conundrum is this. We’ve ordered an RHD Adria Twin 640 SLB, delivery June 2023. This model does not have the diesel heating option but has Truma Combi 4E, so I’m wondering the best way forward. There seems to be a myriad of choices. (underslung tanks, refillable bottles etc)
I think the main criteria are:

Refillable system that is acceptable in Europe and UK.​

Prefer not to have to exchange bottles.​

Heating can be used ‘on the move’ to heat the habitation area.​

In the first instance I’ll probably stick to a couple of German 11kg which I have already and get a crash control fitted, if this is legal in UK?
The van will also be fitted with a solar panel and extra leisure battery. I'm aware that the Truma can runs off 12v?
Many thanks in anticipation!

The combi 4E & Combi 6E use 12v to power the circuits & iNet. For heat & hot water it requires either 230v or gas.
