Why Your RV’s Propane Regulator Needs a Yearly Inspection

 Why Your RV’s Propane Regulator Needs a Yearly InspectionPropane powers your RV’s stove, fridge, heater — and it’s safe when properly maintained. But a faulty regulator can lead to leaks, pressure drops, or even fire hazards. That’s why Camper John’s RV Service & Repairs recommends annual propane regulator inspections to keep your system secure and your travels worry-free.

What does a propane regulator do?

Controls gas pressure: Ensures propane flows at safe, consistent levels to appliances.

Prevents overpressure: Protects lines and equipment from damage or explosion.

Regulates dual tanks: In two-stage systems, it balances supply between cylinders.

Why yearly inspections matter

Rubber seals degrade over time, leading to leaks.

Internal components can corrode, especially in humid or coastal environments.

Pressure settings may drift, causing appliance malfunctions.

Leaks may go unnoticed, especially in older RVs or infrequently used systems.

Safety standards evolve, and older regulators may not meet current codes.
