SAFE & EASY camper van propane install | DIY Ford Transit Conversion

In this video, we show you our Ford Transit camper van propane install. Having propane in your camper van can be dangerous, but if you follow our video your propane system will be safe and easy to use. A camper van propane tank should be sealed off from the rest or the van and vented to the outside of the van. We will show you how we built our custom vented propane locker into our kitchen cabinet, run copper propane lines, and how to check for propane leaks to ensure a safe environment to run your oven, stove and gas water heater.
We also talk a bit about what we like and dislike about our Greystone 17 inch gas range and our Excel Propane water heater.

ABOUT
We are Maddie and Nico and we’re building out our 2020 Ford Transit to live in full time. After traveling to numerous countries and living together both abroad and in the US, we have decided to take the leap and become digital nomads! Neither of us have any building or carpentry skills. We are taking on this project completely self-taught!

@@nomadmaddie You guys are awesome. I'm planning on selling my Sportsmobile van and building out a Transit. Your videos have been VERY helpful!

[@vernewinder9626]

Like your videos, as for your oven,we had a similar problem in our trailer and and it was the gas burner was to small from factory had to be drilled out a little bit more

[@nomadmaddie]

What exactly did you drill?

[@docbreezy4900]

if this 10lbs propane tank last you about 2-3mo's, do you use this as your primary cooking device? Rather, how ofter on avg. (hr:min) per day do you use it?

[@nomadmaddie]

I cook breakfast, lunch and dinner almost every day with it. Hard to estimate average time cause different things take longer to cook... It also suplies propane to out hot water heater. So anytime we have hot water running it's drawing propane.
