7KG Butane Gas Bottles: Ideal for Caravans or Long Campervan Trips

The 7kg butane gas bottles available from Bottle Gases are ideal for portable Calor gas heaters and caravans. These cylinders are quite large and 7KG butane will last a long time when used in a caravan or campervan as the energy source for cooking appliances and heaters. If you have a smaller campervan that you use for weekend trips then the 4.5KG cylinders we have on offer may be more suitable. For week long caravan stays then the 7KG butane gas bottle is an ideal solution.

Why Choose 7KG Butane Gas Bottles?

Based on the above applications you may be more confident that the 7KG butane cylinder is the right size for you, but why choose butane over propane when both LPG gases can be used for the same appliances and applications?

We have written an in-depth article on the differences between propane and butane on our sister website Adams Gas, but the main differences are:

Higher Boiling Point – Butane gas becomes liquid at -2 degrees Celsius and lower whereas it is -42 degrees celsius for Propane. In colder climates or for external gas bottle storage applications propane gas cylinders may be more suitable however where the gas bottle is stored in warmer climates or within the vehicle or caravan then you can benefit from the increased efficiency of butane gas eluding to it being the more cost effective option.

Energy Efficient – Butane produces approximately 12% more energy than propane (when the same volume is burned). If you light your appliance frequently, then butane is an excellent choice. As the middle size of our butane gas bottles, this is ideal for shorter trips.

Cost-Effective – In general, butane is usually a little bit cheaper to buy than propane. This makes our 7KG butane gas bottle an excellent, cost efficient choice in comparison to some propane alternatives.

Is Calor the Right Brand for Me?

Unless you’re planning on travelling around Europe, Calor is by far the best choice of gas cylinder provider due to their popularity and ubiquitous supply across the UK. If you are looking for a 7KG butane cylinder for a campervan trip around Europe, you will find it harder to find Calor refills on the continent where campingaz is much more popular albeit a more expensive choice.

You could avoid this by purchasing two Calor 7KG butane gas bottles before your trip or purchasing a regulator adaptor so you can switch gas providers during your trip. Please don’t hesitate to get in touch if you would like more information or advice.
