The LPGA Approved Installer Scheme is operated by UKLPG and has been drawn up in consultation with the Department for Transport. The scheme is a voluntary one, the only such scheme given official government recognition and  participation is increasingly being sought by insurance companies and consumers.

The Scheme provides consumers with the assurance of a safe and satisfactory installation backed by a Quality Assurance Programme and full complaints process, providing your business with a competitive advantage in the vehicle conversion market.

UKLPG 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 LPG. For details and to purchase a copy go to our publications for sale
