- What is wrong
- Vehicle description: fifth wheel trailers equipped with slide-out rooms that house the kitchen range and refrigerator. A liquid propane (lp) gas hose connects the main lp gas manifold to the gas fired appliances in the slide-out room. The connection of the hose to a tee in the refrigerator compartment puts a rotational stress on the crimped connection between the fitting that connects to the tee and the hose itself.
- Risk
- This condition can result in leakage of lp gas, increasing the risk of fire.
- Remedy
- Dealers will install a manifold that will go into the refrigerator anchoring this to the floor, then attaching a hose with a high compression end fitting to a brass fitting. The hose will then flex side to side rather than rotationally.
