Using Propane already and need a quick and cheap way into refillables?  Read on!

It isn't difficult to get started and it can be done cheaply and simply if you are already on an older Propane system. Many of you will have the the traditional regulator-on-bottle connected to the motorhome with rubber gas tubing. Often the bottles are swapped over to effect the change but sometimes a simple 'tap' is used to do this (like the one illustrated bottom).  In this case the cheapest upgrade is to have just a No-1 Refillable cylinder and to keep a Propane bottle as your reserve. The best refillable to have is the 11Kg which often fits well where the Calor 13Kg definitely will not - and even into cupboards described as "for 6Kg only"!  If keeping one of your Calor bottles as the reserve and space is limited it is better to have one 11Kg Refillable Cylinder plus a 6Kg Calor bottle rather than the other way round!!  Do swap it for a smaller one if necessary. 

So how do you actually do it? It is quite simple really - Just install an 11Kg or 6Kg refillable cylinder along with the essential Remote Filling Kit and then connect your existing Propane Regulator to the refillable cylinder with our Adaptor + Gauge  (01-4330) as illustrated left. The reserve Calor bottle stays just as it is. It's easy, cheap and effective!  The hardest part is siting the remote filler but you only have to do it once. Actually in the locker door is quite easy and very popular. Optionally add European filling adaptors for foreign travel and you're done.  Buy Below >>> (PgDn)

Once installed you check the gauge occasionally and then just pull up at one of the thousands of Autogas Service Stations throughout the UK and Europe and top up with Propane - just like putting petrol or diesel in your car. Dedicated filling points and country specific adaptors, as illustrated below, make the whole process very straightforward and workable over most of Europe.

Popular Misconception:  You have to save up for a twin installation. Wrong!  As long as you add 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 just as you would your vehicle's diesel tank - and you don't have two diesel tanks do you?!  The case for twin refillables is simply to carry more gas for longer intervals between top-ups.  But many small gas lockers designed for 2x6Kg will take the compact 11Kg Gaslow cylinder so you get nearly as much gas in the single cylinder anyway!  And if you do decide later that you need a second cylinder of either size the upgrade route is very easy. 

Terminology:  Most LPG containers are of course 'refillable' but not by the end user!  Gaslow Refillable Cylinders are of course user-refillable at Autogas pumps and at LPG depots where gas is often cheaper.  We've tried to use some consistent terminology here to aid understanding.  We use the term Refillable to mean a user-refillable unit like the Gaslow.  The terms Cylinder and Bottle are interchangeable but we've used Cylinder in relation to the refillables and reserve Bottle for the exchangeable 'Calor' gas bottles found at garages and also in hardware and camping shops and at caravan sites.

Bottle weights:  Net weights do vary on all gas bottles and so are individually marked on every cylinder. As a guide the Gaslow refillables are 7-8Kg and 12-15Kg. This is broadly similar to 'Calor' style bottles.

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 .
