Is there a CCI controls LP gas detector?

Thanks for the suggestion. I replaced my CCI Controls LP Detector with this unit, Safe-T-Alert 70-742-R-BR in Brown. Ordered on the internet. It seems to work fine and is a CO and LP detector combined. It fit into the existing cutout but requires the included new solenoid valve to be installed.

CCI has gone out of business and I’m wondering if anyone knows of another option or manufacturer for the CCI Controls 7719. I have a 1998 Affinity and I understand these units fail after about 5 years! It is the original (I think) unit that country coach installed.

Can a propane leak detector detect carbon monoxide?

Because the detector would cut off the propane supply when there is a leak, the risk of propane built up and explosion is greatly reduced. Beside propane leak, dual detectors could detect Carbon Monoxide as well so you pretty much buy one for two.

How often should a propane leak detector be replaced?

In most cases, the detector is just old and needs to be replaced. Propane gas detectors should be replaced every 5-7 years. In fact, you will find an expiration date on the front of most common LP leak detectors. That being said, please investigate immediately if you think you may have a propane leak!
