Alde LPG Bubble Leak Detector

Visual Downstream Leak Check | 8mm or 10mm Compression Variants

The Alde bubble tester installs in the low-pressure LPG line close to the regulator outlet. Pressing the tester introduces the supplied fluid into the viewing chamber; bubbles indicate a downstream leak. It provides a simple visual check without electrical power.

CHOOSE THE PIPE SIZE: Select N-29001 for 8mm copper pipe or N-29002 for 10mm copper pipe. The compression connection size must match the existing LPG line.

Key Features

✔ Instant visual check for downstream LPG leakage
✔ No electrical supply, alarm sensor or battery required
✔ Compact 90 × 60 × 30mm body
✔ Supplied with bubble-test fluid
✔ Boat Safety Scheme-approved bubble-tester type

Frequently Asked Questions

Does it continuously sound an alarm?
No. It is a manual visual tester; bubbles in the chamber indicate a downstream leak during the test.

Which version do I need?
Measure the copper pipe outside diameter: choose N-29001 for 8mm or N-29002 for 10mm.

Where is it installed?
Close to the low-pressure outlet of the LPG regulator so downstream pipework and appliances are included in the check.

Can I install it myself?
LPG pipework should be installed and commissioned by a suitably competent engineer under the applicable rules.

Pre-installation check: Confirm pipe size, regulated pressure, downstream appliance load, access and competent gas installation.
