Tag: LPG Cookers and Hobs

The galley is the social hub of any vessel, and a reliable gas cooker or hob is its most essential component. Unlike domestic appliances, marine LPG cooking equipment must be engineered to withstand the constant motion of the water and the corrosive effects of a damp environment. At Marine Heating Solutions, we specialise in the professional installation of high-performance galley appliances, ensuring your cooking setup is as safe as it is functional.

The Specialist Difference: Professional Galley Integration

Installing an LPG hob or oven in a boat requires more than just a gas connection; it requires a deep understanding of marine-specific fire safety and ventilation physics. Our engineering-led approach ensures your galley meets the highest technical standards.

• Gimbal and Stability Checks: We ensure that all free-standing cookers are correctly secured or gimballed to maintain safety during vessel movement.
• Flame Failure Protection: We only install appliances equipped with Flame Failure Devices (FFDs) on all burners, a mandatory requirement for safe below-deck operation.
• Precision Pipework: Our installations utilise correct marine-grade copper tubing with professional-grade mechanical joints, routed to prevent abrasion and vibration damage.

Safety/Regulatory: GasSafe and Canal & River Trust (CRT)

To secure your Canal & River Trust (CRT) license, your gas cooking installation must pass the Boat Safety Scheme (BSS) inspection. This includes strict rules on the proximity of combustible materials to the hob and the presence of a dedicated, accessible gas isolation valve.

As GasSafe registered engineers with marine competencies, we certify that every hob and cooker installation complies with BS EN ISO 10239:2025. Our “right first time” philosophy ensures your galley is a safe place to cook, meeting all insurance and BSS requirements.
