Kitchen 7

Drawer in place!

Next:
Cupboard Doors

Supplied door 600mm which is to wide to use once offside units fitted, so will cut it in half and refit as double doors of 300 mm wide. Easy problem solve for once!

LPG issues

Decided to test LPG today, turned on supply, turned on Propex Heater didn't ignite after 3 full restarts! 
Hobs no gas! Checked all taps OK 
Hasn't been used in over a year, not smelt any leaks so will fill up the tank with a couple of litres. And try again! Could be just at cut off level in the tank.
Note to self maybe a LPG guage might be useful! 🙄

LPG

Part turned up for LPG regulator so all hooked up! Just need to test for leaks! Or more to the point a dry day to crawl under van to turn main tank on!
Secondary tap under wheel arch for ease of on site use!

LPG

Rainy day so no cutting of panels, decided to start mounting LPG regulator, distribution taps and filter under the shelter of rear hatch!
Using the new LPG 8mm flexible thermoplastic pipe
Specs E67.01
Apart from obvious ease of fitting ( no bending of copper pipework) it lasts longer not prone to becoming brittle etc.
It is more expensive but doesn't need replacing very often ( at time of writing I cannot find any timescale for replacement)
It also needs special fittings to join to the distribution manifold and accessories.  

I used it to connect to the chassis mounted LPG tank about 4 yrs ago. No problems still looks as good as new! 
Once all fitted I'll be fitting a easy removable cover to keep pipework etc protected.
