You have kept us informed throughout which is very important to customers who order from things seen on the internet rather than visiting a shop in person" M.D.

New 2008 Gaslow Refillable showing Float GaugeNew Cylinders for 2008:  New for the 2008 season, Gaslow refillable cylinders now come with a built-in float level gauge. The built-in float operates in the lower half of the cylinder for better accuracy at lower gas levels and enters the red with just 18% remaining - very handy indeed and also less temperature sensitive than external gauges. The cylinders are lighter than previously and easier to fit in tight spaces due to removal of the large collar. Other Changes: Several other minor changes for the 2008 season but notably the 01-1645 to 1655 ranges no longer come with high pressure hoses. 

Where can I get a refill??  In 1200+ UK Garages and rising - see www.drivelpg.co.uk/map/index.php for garages in your chosen area  There are other useful guides too - Flogas - Calor - etc. Also you can buy an annual map, sometimes even from a local garage, or downloads for your TomTom or Garmin or Navman. None seem to be really complete though, our local Flogas depot isn't on the web maps for example. European guides are available too, try this useful German website for free searches abroad - again it isn't complete but does offer a great starting point ... www.gas-tankstellen.info/menu.php?language=en_US

Calor user & not into refillables?  Read on - there's plenty here for you, hoses, adaptors, change-overs, gauges, quality regulators both wall mounted and on-bottle, even 50mbar systems for German 'vans. Stainless Steel High Pressure Gas Hoses

Stainless Steel Hoses - Anti-oiling!  An extension of Gaslow's filler hose technology these are exceptional products - high pressure flexible hoses without rubber!  There has been much discussion recently about oily plasticiser leaching out of hoses and clogging up gas regulators leading to costly repairs and unwanted time out of service. One recommendation has been to mount the regulators higher than the bottles but this is rarely practical in a motorhome. Get rid of the problem by fitting our revolutionary stainless hoses and also make doubly sure by fitting hoses long enough to loop below the regulator. No chance of oily residue problems with our very long-life, no rubber, hoses!  In propane 'POL' easy fit and refillable '21.8 LH' types.

Hose Fitting Information:  21.8LH / W20 is the new standard fit.  21.8LH is the thread used on Gaslow refillables and on most German bottles. It is also the same as the old Butane Screw thread as found on UK 4.5Kg bottles. W20 is the thread used on modern regulators and change-overs. So - high pressure hoses are usually 21.8LH at one end and W20 at the other.  Some hoses are made with the UK Propane bullnose 'POL' instead of the 21.8LH but for many situations it is easiest just to add an adaptor to the end of the hose; e.g. to fit 21.8LH to UK 7Kg & 15Kg Butane bottles simply add a 21mm adaptor part no 01-1670.

To Auto or not?  We are great fans of auto-change-over systems here but are surprised at the number of orders we receive for wholly manual systems or even systems with no change-over device at all. This often seems to be a hang over from older habits and ideas about exchanging empty bottles so we thought it would be a good idea to put the case for auto.  Auto-head (Showing red=empty)First we need to just explain the new thinking about gas when using refillables:- You can top up with Autogas whenever you like, there is no need to wait for an empty bottle or even to know about it, you simply do it whenever is convenient, and when you do both bottles are topped up simultaneously; the only thing that counts here is how much gas there is left in total, not which bottle it's in! 

Auto costs a little bit more so it's quite important to understand what you get for your money ... so just what are the main advantages?  The first is one of convenience, an auto system means you'll never have to go out in the dark or rain at some very inconvenient moment to change bottles and the cook won't have to panic when the gas goes out either. The second is a very practical and most important issue - you'll never come back from a day out walking or on the beach to find your fridge defrosting because a bottle has run out!  This becomes ever more important as fridge sizes grow and freezers or decent freezer compartments become more common. To manage an auto system with confidence you need an indicator to show the bottle in use and also a gauge to show how much gas remains; Gaslow have thoughtfully provided both, the auto-head has bottle in use/empty indicators and the new 2008 refillable cylinders all come with built-in float gauges, perfect!  If you aren't a refillable user you can still fit gauges to Calor systems - the 01-1612 accessory gauges for the auto head on newer systems and the 01-1610 for on-bottle fitting on earlier systems for example.

We can't understand why you'd want anything else!  See also Gaslow's 'Twin' brochure pages (new window)

PS: Retro fit twin accessory gauges are available for heads attached to older refillables, Calor Propane, etc.

A popular misconception cleared up:  Gaslow 2008 Spec RefillablesYou have to save up for a twin installation. Wrong!  As long as you have a gauge you can manage perfectly well with just one bottle because there is no exchange involved. You just top up your gas whenever you wish or when the gauge says you are getting low. The case for twin refillables is mostly to carry more gas for longer intervals between top-ups.  Many small gas lockers designed for 2x6Kg will take the compact 11Kg Gaslow cylinder so you may get nearly as much the one cylinder anyway!  And if you decide later that you need a second cylinder of either size the upgrade route is easy. Connecting to the Gaslow refillable cylinder is easy too - the outlet valve you connect to is the same screw type as used on the Calor 4.5Kg Butane cylinder (21.8 LH). NB this not the usual UK Propane fitting. The filling hoses themselves fit to separate dedicated inlets. See the new 2008 cylinders illustrated left.2nd Cylinder WITHOUT right angle connector!

New / special / optional / non-catalogue items:  For example: In-cupboard filler head bracket 01-4160 best used  with right-angle hose adaptor 01-4210. Short hose filling kits, 01-4106 & 01-4156, for use with the in-cupboard bracket. Accessory gauges for auto-change-over, 01-1612, these are as supplied with the Electra 2000 kit, but can be fitted to any installation of the auto head. Auto-head and 50mbar regulator, 01-9999/1755-50 for some older imported 'vans. Right angle adaptor for Jumbo, 01-1676, allows a Stainless Steel hose + Jumbo to be fitted to continuous collar bottles as found in Spain.

Pre-2004 Systems:  Autogas is Propane; actually it can be a mix but it is always mostly Propane. If you are already using Propane you can convert your existing regulator with a Propane Adapter and Gauge (01- 4330) For pre-2004 vans using Butane, you will need to change your regulator and fit one of the following: Propane Manual Changeover (01-1650-REFILL), Propane Auto Changeover (01-1655-REFILL) or Propane Electra 1000 (01-1840-REFILL). If you have a Propane changeover, simply change the high pressure hoses.

A typical post-2004 RegulatorPost-2004 Systems:  For new vans (post-2004) fitted with a 30mbar caravan regulator and using 7Kg or 15Kg Butane cylinders, simply remove the clip-on adapter. If using Propane, change the high pressure hose(s) to an 01-6010/20 or the Stainless Steel equivalent:  Imports with German regulator connections will fit directly on to the refillable cylinder (but new washer is required):

Bottle Weights & Sizes:  Net weights vary on all gas bottles and so are individually marked on every one. As a guide the Gaslow refillables are about 6.9Kg and 11.5Kg. This is broadly similar to 'Calor' style bottles. Sizes are 492h x 246dia for the 6Kg and 580h x 304dia for the 11Kg size, 11.5L & 21L capacity at 80% fill. We expect the 2008 bottles to be slightly shorter ... now known to be about 540mm with the valve open.

Delivery Times:  We are not yet able to offer an overnight service on Gaslow products (we'll do our best if you ask though).  Despatch is normally next day for delivery within two days thereafter but due to the great popularity of the system there are occasional component shortages.  We will try to keep you informed of any delays but - for the time being - response times are rather slower than on our other product lines.

More information: Click here for a Refillables Installation PDF - or if preferred we can point you towards an approved mobile fitter. If fitting a white filler head into bodywork Sikaflex is a truly excellent outdoor adhesive-sealant for this, it isn't needed if fitting inside the gas cupboard.
