When it comes to enjoying life on the road in your RV, powering a mobile catering unit, or even heating your holiday home, LPG (liquefied petroleum gas) is one of the most popular energy choices. It’s clean-burning, efficient, and versatile. But just like any fuel system, safety and reliability start with the quality of your equipment. That’s why finding the right LPG shop is so important.
At Mobile RV Maintenance, we work closely with trusted LPG suppliers and parts shops to ensure our customers always get top-quality products. Here’s why it matters — and what you should look for in a good LPG shop.
Why Quality LPG Products Matter
LPG powers everything from your motorhome’s cooker and fridge to your hot water system and heating. Because it’s a pressurised gas, it demands proper fittings, regulators, hoses, and storage cylinders that meet strict safety standards.
Using cheap or poorly-made components puts you at risk of:
-
Gas leaks that can lead to fire or explosions
-
Inefficient appliance performance, wasting fuel
-
Failing regulator systems that could damage your appliances or lead to costly call-outs
A reputable LPG shop will only sell certified, safety-tested products that are approved for use in the UK (or your local regulatory standards).
What Can You Find at a Good LPG Shop?
The best LPG shops carry everything you need to install, maintain, or upgrade your LPG system. This typically includes:
-
Gas regulators: Essential for reducing cylinder pressure to a safe level for your appliances.
-
High-pressure hoses & clips: Designed specifically for LPG, ensuring safe gas flow without leaks.
-
Changeover valves & kits: Perfect for setups with multiple cylinders, allowing automatic switching when one runs empty.
-
Gas fittings & connectors: Quality brass fittings that create leak-tight connections.
-
Portable cylinders & refill services: From small bottles for camping stoves to large cylinders for static caravans.
-
Leak detection sprays & safety equipment: Helping you maintain your system between professional checks.
A good LPG shop also understands local laws, carries genuine branded parts, and provides expert advice to help you select the right items for your setup.
Why We Trust Specialist LPG Shops
At Mobile RV Maintenance, we often work hand-in-hand with specialist LPG shops when fitting or servicing your RV gas systems. We insist on quality for one reason: your safety.

It’s not just about avoiding breakdowns — it’s about keeping you and your family safe wherever your adventures take you.
How to Choose the Right LPG Shop
When looking for an LPG shop, consider these tips:
-
Check certifications: Are their products CE-marked or conform to UK / EU safety standards?
-
Look for knowledgeable staff: Can they answer your questions about fittings or recommend the right regulator?
-
Do they support your needs? Whether you’re running an RV, boat, patio heater, or commercial unit, they should stock or source the correct gear.
-
Reputation counts: Look for reviews or ask fellow RVers who they trust.
