    Connecting a Single Gas hob to a butane bottle

    @mysteryman Thanks for your post. If I was going to place he bottle outside i would maybe just opt for propane. But I'll see what the gasman says when he comes out to take a look. I'll keep the thread updated.

    Connecting a Single Gas hob to a butane bottle

    @wsts Thanks for this. I'll have an RGI assess the job. I never thought that advice on the internet was any substitute for having the proposed job assessed in person, my main concern was that I wanted some pre-advice, so that I wasn't incurring expense / wasting the time of a RGI and my own...

    Connecting a Single Gas hob to a butane bottle

    Connecting a Single Gas hob to a butane bottle

    Thanks for the reply(s). From what I understand it is acceptable to use butane indoors (but not outdoors, due to the freezing point as you alluded to). The hob will be used infrequently - and there will be two ceramic hobs that will be used most of the time. The ovens will also be...

    Connecting a Single Gas hob to a butane bottle

    Hi, I'm looking for some advice. I'm planning a new kitchen and I want to install a combination of gas and ceramic hobs. http://www.neff.co.uk/hobs-domino.html The gas hob has 6.0kW output (which is quite a large flame) and would be run off a 7kg butane bottle...
