Caravan Rental Without Condition Records and Gas Compliance Exposes Hirers and Operators
A rented touring caravan with an undetected gas leak or an undocumented damp problem creates serious risk for the family using it. Gas appliances must have annual safety checks, awnings and hitch equipment must be inspected, and condition must be documented at departure and return to resolve damage disputes. Without this, rental companies face unresolvable disputes and real safety liability.
