Car manufacturers provide cars which run on LPG so voiding the warranty is not because of the technology. Our LPG kits are a proven technology. If installing the LPG kit voids your engine warranty, you can purchase engine warranty cover backed by leading insurance companies. Only LPGA authorised installers like ourselves are recognised by these insurance companies.

Liquefied Petroleum Gas is the generic name for mixtures of hydrocarbons (mainly propane and butane). When these mixtures are lightly compressed (approx. 800 kPa or 120 psi), they change from a gaseous state to a liquid and become more dense (by approx. 270 times). Eg. 1 litre of LPG liquid is equal to 270 litres of LPG vapour. LPG is colourless, odourless and heavier than air, so a sulphur based chemical (ethyl mercaptan) is added to give it a smell like rotten cabbage, so that even a very small leak can be easily detected. LPG burns readily in air and has an energy content similar to petrol, which makes it an excellent fuel for heating, cooking and for automotive use.

 LPG has been used safely in Australia for many decades. The Australia Standards for LPG equipment, appliances and their installation and for storage and handling are among the world's best. Every aspect of the LPG industry is covered by a National Code or Standard and also by similar or additional State Regulations. The Australian LPG industry in conjunction with LPG Australia actively pursue world's best practice in the delivery of all LPG products and services to consumers.

YES. There are two different grades or blends of LPG and they are not interchangeable. One is for automotive use only (called autogas) and will contain butane and propane. The other is propane only, which is used for decanting into cylinders for caravans, barbecues, camping and household use.
For safety reasons autogas must not be used as a substitute for propane only applications like BBQs or household use.
