Buying Patio Gas When purchasing gas for your patio it is crucial to select the correct bottle and type for your needs. This will ensure longevity and safety for the bottle. Gas regulators reduce the pressure of gas as it exits cylinders. This can be clip on or screw-on and is dependent on the cylinder size and type. Propane Propane is a highly efficient alternative fuel that has an uncluttered burn is suitable to power everything from gas fireplaces to standby generators for homes. It also offers many environmental benefits, such as the reduction of greenhouse gases and air pollutants. It is also safe, nontoxic and safe for indoor and outdoor use. Propane also has the added benefit of being a cost-effective option for heating homes in areas in which natural gas isn't available. The propane tank is delivered to your residence and is connected to a variety of appliances. This method of delivery is usually less expensive than having an entirely new natural gas line put in place and may result in lower annual energy bills. If you'd like to purchase a propane tank for your home, or swap your current tank for a new one, you can find an propane dealer close to you that will provide the assistance you require. The process for buying propane is based on the size of the tank. It is usually the initial purchase, then a subsequent exchange and refills. Smaller propane tanks, like 20-pound cylinders are often used to fuel patio heaters and barbecue grills. These tanks are widely available from a range of retailers including convenience stores, hardware shops and most gas stations. You can also buy a pre-filled propane tank at some home centers for one-stop shopping. These larger propane cylinders can be used to power water heaters, home heating, and backup generators. These larger cylinders, which can be rented on a long-term contract, are stored underground or in another secure location. These cylinders are also referred to as LP-gas and LPG and are rented or purchased from most propane suppliers. Propane is a remarkably secure and efficient source of energy that can be purchased in a variety of ways and is a perfect option for homeowners who require the extra energy needed for a variety of appliances and activities. The best propane provider for your requirements will be determined by factors like the cost of propane in your region and your preferred delivery time and the amount of energy that you typically use annually. Butane When you are buying patio gas, you'll need to decide if you want butane or propane. Both are safe and non-toxic energy sources for outdoor appliances, such as patio heaters and BBQs. Propane, typically available in 5 kg cylinders, is the preferred choice for patio heaters because of its lower boiling point. Propane-powered heaters can operate at temperatures as low as -4degC. Butane however, will struggle to vaporise under such conditions. Butane On the other hand, is typically found in 15kg cylinders. This makes it a more heavy-duty option, often used for camping and caravanning as well as domestic appliances such as gas cookers. Like propane butane is a safe and efficient source of energy, and has the advantage of being much less volatile than propane. Whatever kind of gas you prefer you'll need to purchase a patio gas container and regulator. Gas bottles for patios are specifically designed to work with regulators. This allows you to connect the gas bottle directly to the BBQ's propane or butane outlet. Patio gas bottles are sold at the majority of supermarkets as well as in some hardware and DIY stores. Patio gas bottles tend to be smaller than other kinds of gas bottles, which makes them ideal for heating patios and BBQs. They are also constructed of sturdy and durable materials that means they can endure a lot of wear and tear without becoming damaged. The most common type of gas for patios is a red or blue, but you can find bottles in other colours too.

What do you intend to use the gas for first? It is essential to understand that propane and butane have distinct uses. Propane, with its low boiling temperature of -42 degrees Celsius is perfect for BBQs and garden equipment, whereas butane is ideal for indoor portable heaters, single-burner cookers, and other appliances. Also, if you are planning to power a motorhome or caravan appliance then you will have to choose the correct bottle size to meet your needs, since larger appliances consume more energy. Thankfully, here at Flogas we have both green Patio gas bottles and cylinders of butane Campingaz for these uses. You should also consider the location you intend to keep your gas bottles. We recommend keeping your gas bottle out of the way to decrease the risk of leaks and give you peace-of-mind that your appliance is safe to use. This is especially important when considering that your propane or gas bottle will contain a very pressurised gas and must be stored in a location where it cannot leak or break or be damaged. All of our gas bottles come with regulators. This is a vital safety feature that decreases the pressure at which your barbecue or heating device for your patio receives gas. The type of regulator you need depends on the kind of gas that you are using and the size of the cylinder; green patio bottles work with a 27mm clip-on regulator as well as butane Campingaz cylinders have a screw in regulator (link to learn more details about this). As the gases used in gas bottles are subject to such high pressure, special safety rules must be adhered to, including chaining them to prevent them from falling or breaking. There are also regulations in place regarding how to store them, and also signs to warn people of the risks and safety precautions. It is not advisable to buy gas that is bottled. Instead you can lease it from a Gas Supply Company in order to use it with a specific gas appliance. This permits regular tests of the cylinder to ensure that its quality is maintained and it is in compliance with all relevant standards. Regulators Gas regulators are required to connect the gas bottle to a propane patio heater, BBQ or other propane-based gas appliance. Gas regulators cut down the high-pressure gas supply from the cylinder to a more constant regulated propane pressure required by your appliance. There are many different types and styles of regulators available, each with varying pressure settings and connections based on the application. Liquefied petroleum gas is generally bottled in either Butane or Propane bottles, with Butane bottles typically being blue and Propane being red. gas flame patio heater come with a screw-on regulator, which requires a spanner for tightening. Butane bottles use a clip-on that has a standard valve size of 21mm. Propane and Butane are not compatible. You can connect Butane appliances to a Propane bottle however not in the reverse order. Three major components work together to control the gas pressure. A loading mechanism controls delivery pressure, while the sensing component (usually a dialume) senses force of the spring that is applied to it. A control element lowers the inlet pressure into the downstream pressure. The atmospheric pressure will also influence the gas pressure as it is transported by the regulator. This pressure is dependent on how high your building is above sea level. It is crucial to select the appropriate regulator for your needs. This will prevent your propane barbecue from running out of gas or having erratic performance.
