trickydicky Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 After enquiring about getting a camping gaz bottle a couple of posts suggested having a BBQ point fitted to our motorhome.I presume this could be done at a service centre.does anyone know roughly how much this would cost please.

Ninian Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 Hi, If you do it yourself it is quite easy to test for a leak, simply mix up a solution of water and washing up liquid and paint it on to the joints. If it bubbles up it is leaking NO bubbles. Job done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pepe63xnotuse Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 tricky'...Depending on which side your gas locker is located, maybe look at just fitting a bbq point within that? This is the "gasit" tap,that I fitted to ours: (..and we just feed the bbq hose up through a large gas drop hole, if we want/need to close the locker door). Even if you get it fitted "professionally", it'd be an easier/cheapier option, than having one cut into the van wall... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got the fitting (8mm gas tap with compression olives) for about a fiver from local plumbers merchants. Painted soapy water over all joints I made, no bubbles, all ok. Just feed bbq pipe through open locker door, then sometimes bungee the door closed, only necessary if it's windy. regards Allen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
