Being new to caravaning this might be a stupid question. When we used to camp and use the gas bottle we turned it off after every time we used it. With the gas bottles being in the front compartment do you leave them on all day and turn off at night, or leave them on all the time until you go home? We will use EHU for fridge etc.

I always turn the gas off at the cylinder, usually when not in use. It might be a bit 'belt and braces' but we once owned a boat where it was pretty important to be gas aware!

I only turn my gas off when im towing it or in storage,

youll find every person does it there own little way.

best advice is do what you feel comfy with

I as a rule leave it on from the min i pull up till the min i pull away if your worrying about leaks then test first with fairy liquid

on all valves joins and taps with gas turned on librally smear neat fairy liquid all around if it bubbles nip it up a little tighter using 2 spnners/pairs of plumb grips if it dont bubble its fine
