As a newbie MH owner I am looking forward to your videos and have decided to subscribe. I would like to see your videos include more shots of hands-on action rather than just speaking. I think that visual would help me. That said, I am finding your explanations very informative and clearly presented. Thank you!
Hi Joan. I hope you enjoy your new MH. Thanks so much for subscribing to my channel. Your constructive criticism is absolutely right. I do need to include more demonstrations of what to do instead of just explaining it. I appreciate feedback like this and I'll apply it and do my best to make future videos even better. Feel free to let me know what you really think anytime!
Fine video! Very articulate and well presented. Thank you for the information.
Glad it was helpful. Thanks for watching and commenting!

Hi Larry. Just keep in mind that most LP detector manufacturers recommend replacing the unit every 5 years or so.
Great advice, but I think LP stands for liquid propane not petroleum.
You are correct. If I said petroleum in the video, that was incorrect. Thanks for the clarification!
Thanks for vid
Thanks for video. I have a 2006 Fleetwood Bounder
My propane gas leak detector model No 7773.0
Two red wires and one black wire...which is a good replacement model?
Thanks again
I think you can find the replacement for that LP gas detector on this page - answers.rvupgradestore.com/3144585/I-have-a-CCI-Controls-LP-Gas-Leak-Detector-Model-No-7773-0-3-wires-2-red-wires-1-black-wire
Any time Javier. Thanks for watching!
The question I have been searching for weeks now is: RV Propane and CO detectors are usually good for about 5 years and should be replaced after that.
So, when does an RV Propane Detectors Life Cycle begin? Is it 5 years from the Manufacture Date? Or is it 5 years from the first time 12 volt power is applied to the UNIT?
I have asked HI and LO and either NO one knows the answer, or simply don't want to answer for fear they may be wrong. But, someone has to know.
I got a response from ATWOOD/DOMETIC identifying the product as their product, but could not answer the question and told me to contact my dealer. IF ATWOOD doesn't know the answer and they make the product, then who does??
Would be nice to get an answer to this DAUNTING Question?
Thanks in advance.

That's a great question Jeff. I think it's important to remember that any suggested replacement date is just a suggestion to err on the safe side. Actually, many LP gas detectors function fine for years beyond the recommended replacement date. But it is recommended to replace them about every 5 years because many gas detectors are beginning to show their age about then. And when something as important as your life is on the line depending on whether the detector functions or not, it's a no-brainer to just go ahead and replace it to be safe. So whether you use the manufacture date or the date when it was installed, it probably is not that big of an issue. But I know that as RV inspectors we always look for the date of manufacture that is usually printed on the back of the unit. That is the safest choice to make anyway. I hope that helps.
