Bottled Gas For Portable Appliances



Buy Bottled Gas Refills in Sheffield



Butane and Propane lpg is an ideal type of fuel for powering most types of portable gas heaters and appliances.

Affordable and economical are two advantages in using bottled gas over other fuel sources such as diesel, paraffin, kerosene, and electric.

Perhaps the main advantage though in using bottled gas is the portability and practicality it offers.

Most portable gas heaters use either butane or propane lpg gas. A portable heater can be sited or positioned where required and depending on the size and type of heater can be operated independently just off a cylinder of gas with no other power source needed.

This is especially the gas with mobile cabinet heaters and plaque type heaters.

Industrial space heaters (the rocket - torpedo shaped type) will require an electrical power source as well as the gas supply. This is needed to power the blower fan inside the unit to force hot air out into the room or area that needs heating.

Most space heaters operate off propane type bottled gas. This type of lpg can burn at a lower ambient temperature that butane and so is more suitable for use in extreme weather conditions and for large open buildings such as factory units and warehouses.

Propane fired heaters are also a popular appliance for the warming and heating up of temporary buildings such as marquees.

If you are holding an event in Autumn, Winter, or Spring and are renting a marquee or large party tent it is worth considering the use of a bottled gas fired heater as the preferential choice of heating.

In the UK a large number of households and business users use a mobile type cabinet heater for additional heating during winter time and other cold spells throughout the year.

This type of mobile heater runs off economical cylinders of butane bottled gas that give a good running time at a cost effective price over electricity.

Butane gas cylinder refills come in different sizes and capacities, the most popular being the flogas 13kg bottle of gas. This is the standard refill size of bottled gas that fits into the rear area of a mobile cabinet heater such as those sold under the brand names of Calor Gas, Leisure, Delonghi, Kampa, and several more.
