Become An Installer


The Autogas sector is one of the newest and fastest growing segments of the car industry. We here at Stargas UK are always looking for new installers to join our growing network of approved installers.

 

The Autogas UK market


There are over 140,000 vehicles running on LPG in the UK. The vast majority of these run on the older single point type LPG kits. These were hard to fit and caused problems such as "backfire". Furthermore the systems would require frequent adjustments to ensure that the vehicle ran correctly on LPG. Customers would forget to go back to the installer and the installer would be blamed.
Customers who are looking to install LPG systems to their vehicles that are 2001 and newer. These vehicles must be fitted with multi sequencial injection systems. In 2002 2.54 million new cars were registered in the UK, Of those 602,623 were powered by diesel *.
This left 1.9 million cars that could be converted to run on LPG. These figures are for 2002 alone, obviously the market is huge. Here at Autolpg we are the UK Sole distributor of STARGAS LPG Kits. These are the state of the art systems.

 

Our training program


We offer a thorough training program. We will also advise you on how to become LPGA approved.
Unlike other trainers we will not just hand out books and hope you can teach yourself. The process starts by us meeting and agreeing that becoming an LPG installer is for you. Once we see commitment from you we will provide training material to you. You will have to learn this material before you come to be trained with us.
The rest of the process would be as follows:-
 
  • We will show you how and where each component is fitted to a vehicle.
  • We offer a full "hands on" training program for those that are new to the industry.
  • A heath check is performed on the vehicle due to be converted
  • The car is converted to run on LPG
  • The commissioning of the LPG system is undertaken
  • Emission testing of the vehicle is undertaken and demonstrated to the trainee(s)
  • Hand over documentation is presented and explained to the trainee(s).
    •
     
    At the end of the training the trainee(s) will know how to install properly and safely.
     
    Unlike other trainers and distributors we take an active role in marketing your business. We have a unique marketing strategy which we will share with you once you become a member of our installer base.
