In the process of getting all my gas stuff cleaned up. It's by far easiest to put the Gaslow filler point in the locker on a 90degree bracket.

You read about people not being allowed to fill when they open the locker up but in reality how often does it really happen here or abroad?

I've got 4 LPG pumps within 10 minutes of our house, so the choice is there, I know one you could rock up with 100 Calor bottles and hand fill them all and they wouldn't care (not that I would or should)
 
Yes, very nice. Proper job. Do you know where it’s connected to Sapper? As its a long way back to the shut off valves in the garage area.
I ordered 3m of copper tube, 8mm tee piece and a chassis mount version of yours, with the idea I will fit it in front of the rear wheel as long as the sliding door allows access to it. Well under the awning then when I’m demoted to external living only:LOL:

It runs from the gas supply, to its own isolation valve, in the little cupboard under the passenger seats……along with the other gas supplies and Truma frost protection switch etc.

Not sure of the route from there to the BBQ point.

I can take a photo of the valve location in the cupboard if you like?👍

Ah. Ok. Of course there is gas in the underseat locker. For the Truma. I’ll look in there for a route across the van. Thanks.
Plenty still to do to this van: the new lights over the bed are fitted snd wired up, but not connected to the 12v box in the cupboard opposite yet as might need a power take off for the Garmin reversing camera (already fitted and routed to the offside light unit) and the reversing sensors need fitting, but they can wait until I get a tow bar, as the bumper has to come off to fit that. That then leaves the string repair to the sliding door flyscreen and fit the newly delivered 200w solar panel.
I’ll be bored once its all done!! Though we are off to Spain in it late February, so need to crack on with it all. I might add another Varta battery under the seat when I do that.
So there will be plenty of questions to follow guys.

Ours is inside the locker, never had an issue. Just one site where they checked I had refillable bottles, but otherwise no issues in 7 years . (y)

Thanks Everyone,

I've got a new Gaslow on the way from Autogas2000 (thanks Basildog) As well as a fresh Braded hose and 70mm internal fill bracket.
Its got a new Regulator being installed next week, and I've swapped the other pigtail for a 27mm propane clip on, so I can use the Flogas Gaslight bottles. I can then remove this to BBQ and its a nice and simple to clip back in.

BBQ point is getting removed from the door and the 50mm hole will be filled with a round vent.

Old Gaslow filler point hole will get filled and covered by the LPG sticker.

It will be nice to finally open the locker door without a dangerous combo of pipes, tubes, hoses getting wrapped round everything.
