LPG Gas is a multi-purpose, modern, clean, accessible, and efficient energy source for your home and business. Although your property may not be directly connected to a main gas line, you can still enjoy the benefits that more energy efficient fuel provides. LPG Gas Suppliers can deliver gas suppliers to your door via bottles, cylinders, and tanks.

Bottled gas is a term used for substances which are gaseous at Standard Temperature and Pressure (STP) and have been compressed and stored in carbon steel, stainless steel, aluminum or composite bottles known as gas cylinders. The term includes pressurized gas (e.g. oxygen and nitrogen cylinders) and gases liquefied under pressure (e.g. liquid butane for use as a fuel).

In the United States, 'bottled gas' typically refers to liquefied petroleum gas. 'Bottled gas' is sometimes used in medical supply, especially for portable oxygen tanks. Packaged industrial gases are frequently called 'cylinder gas', though 'bottled gas' is sometimes used. In the United Kingdom and other parts of Europe 'bottled gas' is more commonly used discussing any usage whether industrial, medical or liquefied petroleum. However, in contrast, what the United States calls liquefied petroleum gas is known generically in the United Kingdom as 'LPG'; and it may be ordered using by one of several trade names, or specifically as butane or propane depending on the required heat output. For purposes of this article, we'll reference use of terms based on UK nomenclature.

LPG gas cylinders are an efficient and affordable alternative for central heating in your home. Because some properties may be space constrained and accommodation of a storage tank is not feasible, cylinders can be a perfection solution with an unobtrusive installation. Most good suppliers will provide free delivery service and provide cylinders with automatic changeover valve. The valve ensures peace of mind and continuity of supply by automatically switching between cylinders once empty. Optional cylinder-housing units are also available which can hide cylinders from view.

For room specific or portable heating, you'll find a full range of portable cabinet heaters suitable for indoor heating. Using a propane gas cylinder, mobile heaters enables you to quickly and efficiently heat a specific space. Mobile heaters can be easily moved from room to room, as you move and are ideal for conservatories and home offices. Note however, they are not recommended for use in bathrooms or bedrooms.

With changing lifestyles, more people spend money on their outdoor living environments such that leisure time is spent cooking and lounging in a backyard or an open area which extends the traditional home. Many new appliances increase the comfort of our time outdoors and we now find our charcoal grills have been replaced with sophisticated barbeque cook stations with mini-refrigerators and outdoor sinks. To keep us warm or to just create ambiance, more and more people are purchasing outdoor patio heaters and portable propane or wood fire pits.

For those who really enjoy a home away from home, modern caravanning and camping at home parks, has been taken to a whole new level with small portable tanks to accommodate any number of modern conveniences while on the road.
