Whether you need to purchase butane or propane gas depends on your requirements.
Butane gas (stored in blue bottles) is generally used for camping and heating, often used for small outdoor cooking appliances and indoor caravan heaters.
Propane gas (stored in red bottles) is generally used for domestic cooking and heating, often used for patios heaters and types of BBQ equipment.
The primary difference between butane and propane is their boiling point, with propane able to withstand lower temperatures, making them more suitable for outdoor storage. If you’re unsure of what gas you need, contact a friendly member of our team for assistance.
