removing gas fridge and cooker

[JD]

I've had a quick look to see if this has been asked before but found nowt!

Has anyone removed the fridge and sink/hob unit from their van? I'm considering getting rid, and having taken a moment to look at the connections this afternoon, I'm a little unsure of how it's put together
From what I can see, some of the gas pipes run down into the floor and others out the back of the cupboard unit and into the body of the van.

So before I attack my baby by taking up the floor and ripping out the units I thought I'd ask if any of you have done this, and if so is it straightforward?

When I took my 'kitchen' out of the Devon- in your case your 'wardrobe' may be connected to the 'kitchen' bit - I found it was of modular construction and held in place by various self tappers - into the side and floor of the van and through the 'wardrobe' bit.

If you have a fridge you will have to take it out first, disconnect the gas, the 12volt and the 240 volt wires, any screws which hold the fridge in place (usually 4 through the unit and into the fridge sides)....a simple enough task.

Remove the water and drain hose connections on the sink.

Disconnect the gas pipes from the cooker and remove it.

My unit was fastened to the top of the floor timber sheet. It was simply a matter of removing the screws and pulling the unit out as a whole.

It really is simple to do, anything your not sure about just ask. I have no doubt that if I have missed something out, someone will be along to offer their own advice.
