LP, Heating, and Cooling
LP, Heating, and Cooling for RVs, vans, and trailers
TLDR
OCRV Center performs lp, heating, and cooling in-shop in Yorba Linda for RVs, vans, and trailers. Thorough collision estimates, direct insurance billing, and a written estimate before any work begins.
What LP, heating, and cooling work do you do on RVs?
OCRV Center services RV climate and gas systems in-shop: LP service and certified leak repair, furnaces, water heaters and hydronic systems such as AquaHot, rooftop and ducted air conditioning, ventilation, and safety detectors. Gas work is handled carefully because an LP leak is both a comfort and a safety issue.
What lp, heating, and cooling covers
OCRV Center handles lp, heating, and cooling in-shop at our Yorba Linda facility for RVs, vans, trailers, and commercial vehicles. LP service, furnaces, water heaters, AquaHot, AC, and ventilation. Because we only work on these vehicles, this is something our technicians do every week, not an occasional job squeezed in between cars.
LP systems and leak repair
Propane runs the furnace, water heater, cooktop, and often the refrigerator, and a leak anywhere in that system is a safety problem first and a comfort problem second. We test the LP system, find leaks, and repair regulators, lines, and fittings.
We also service and verify the detectors that warn you, because an LP or carbon-monoxide detector that has aged out gives a false sense of safety.
Furnaces, water heaters, and AquaHot
RV furnaces and water heaters fail in familiar ways: ignition faults, blocked burners, and worn boards, and a no-heat or no-hot-water call is common right when the weather turns. We service forced-air furnaces, tank and tankless water heaters, and hydronic systems such as AquaHot.
On higher-end coaches the hydronic system handles both heat and hot water, and it rewards a technician who understands the whole loop rather than treating it like a simple water heater.
Air conditioning and ventilation
Rooftop and ducted air conditioners lose capacity from age, dirty coils, and failing capacitors and fans, and in Southern California a weak AC is a real problem. We service and replace rooftop units, fans, and ventilation.
Good airflow and a properly charged, clean system are the difference between an AC that keeps up in summer heat and one that runs constantly without cooling.
What affects the cost
Several things move the price of lp, heating, and cooling up or down. The biggest are usually the extent of the damage and whether the work is structural or cosmetic.
- LP leak testing and the location of the fault
- Furnace versus water heater versus hydronic system
- Air-conditioner service versus full unit replacement
- Number of AC units and ventilation points
- Detector replacement and certification
- Parts availability for the specific appliance

Every job begins with an inspection and a written estimate. A typical job includes:
- LP system test and certified leak repair
