LPG Converter Insurance FAQs

+-

Do LPG converters need motor trade insurance?

Usually yes if you work on customer vehicles, move them, road test them, store them or install safety-critical LPG/autogas systems as a business.

+-

Is LPG converter insurance different from general mechanic insurance?

It can be. LPG conversion should describe gas-system work, completed conversion liability, product traceability and safety controls rather than relying only on a broad mechanic or garage description.

Can road testing be covered?

Road testing can often be reviewed where declared, subject to driver details, vehicle values, policy wording and insurer acceptance.

+-

What information helps insurers quote?

Insurers usually need trade activities, vehicle types, maximum customer vehicle values, LPG component details, training, quality checks, stock values, premises controls, road risk needs and claims history.
