UKLPG Approved Autogas Installers

UKLPG Approved Autogas Installers provide consumers with the assurance that they undertake a conversion in a safe and satisfactory manner.

The approval process was established in 1999, by the then LPGA, in consultation with the Department for Transport, and has been the standard for the industry for over two decades.

The UKLPG Approved Autogas Installers Scheme (formerly the LPGA Approved Installer Scheme) is operated by Liquid Gas UK and is the only such scheme given official government recognition.

Consumers who have their vehicle converted by a UKLPG Approved Autogas Installer have the assurance that the installers have demonstrated their ability to undertake a safe and satisfactory installation.

Only UKLPG Approved Autogas Installers can place vehicles on the UKLPG Vehicle Register - a requirement increasingly sought by insurance companies and consumers.

Liquid Gas UK also publishes Code of Practice 11, drawn up in consultation with the industry, Department for Transport and the HSE, which is the industry standard for converting vehicles to run on LP Gas.
