How often should I replace my RV propane leak detector?

Replace propane detectors every 5–7 years as sensors degrade over time. Check your detector’s manufacturing date for guidance.

Why does my RV propane alarm keep going off?

Propane detectors can trigger from cleaning fumes, low battery voltage, or real leaks. Always ventilate and retest your system.

Can I use a home propane detector in my RV?

No. RV propane detectors are 12V-rated and built for mobile vibration, temperature changes, and RVIA safety compliance.

Do LP gas detectors also detect carbon monoxide?

Only combination LP/CO alarms detect both gases. Standard propane detectors do not sense carbon monoxide.

Pro Tip

Replace your RV propane leak detector every 5–7 years — even if it appears functional. Detectors lose sensitivity over time. Test your alarm monthly and pair it with a two-stage propane regulator for complete system safety.
