Transport and handle safely

Install correctly at your pitch

Using the Dedicated Gas Hook‑Up on Touring Pitches
Camping Aquarius equips touring pitches with a dedicated gas connection so you can link compatible appliances directly at your pitch.
- Compatibility first: Ensure your hose and regulator match the connection standard of your gear. If in doubt, verify specifications on your regulator/appliances before connecting.
- No improvising: Do not modify fittings or use adapters that are not rated for LPG.
- Ventilation matters: Position gas appliances in well‑ventilated areas and keep cylinders upright.
- Combine smartly: Use the gas connection for cooking/heating while powering other devices via the 6 A or 16 A electrical hook‑up provided on pitches.
Safety First: Best Practices for LPG Cylinders
These widely accepted safety measures help keep your setup efficient and secure:
- Keep cylinders upright at all times; never lay them on their side.
- Store outdoors or in a well‑ventilated area; never in sleeping areas.
- Heat and flame clearance: Keep cylinders away from heat sources, BBQs, and ignition points.
- Use the right regulator rated for LPG and for the pressure your appliances require.
- Inspect hoses for cracks, wear, or loose clamps; replace if in doubt.
- Leak check with soapy water: After connecting, brush soapy water on joints and watch for bubbles. Never use a flame to test for leaks.
- Close the valve when not actively using gas, at night, and when you leave your pitch.
- Avoid DIY repairs on valves/regulators; replace faulty parts with certified components.
- Ventilate while cooking and keep a fire blanket or appropriate extinguisher accessible.
