- Years and years ago, my parents owned an 1973 Class A Concord on a Chevy chassis.
I was over there one day helping Dad get it ready for a trip. I lit the pilot light on the water heater to be sure everything was working OK. All of a sudden, I had a HUGE flame blowing out of the water heater compartment!
I ran around and grabbed the fire extinguisher and put it out. On examination, I found that the 1/8" copper tubing carrying propane to the burner had split.
I went to the hardware store and bought a length of tubing and a flaring set, and replaced the split tube. He kept the RV for years, and finally sold it, still in working order. - Sounds like the alarm would not have made a difference..human error...grandpa was lighting the stove...shame....
- And make sure your LP alarm is working!
