The defect

The furnace may be inadequately secured. The wood screw holding the right hand inside corner of the furnace down to its supporting surface may be engaging plywood that IS too thin. If the screw comes loose while trailer IS in service, the furnace may bounce on its supporting surface or shift position, possibly causing lp gas tube failure inside the trailer.

The remedy

An attaching bracket will be installed to anchor the furnace and the lp gas tube will be inspected for possible damage.
