Useful information about Calor Butane
Calor Butane cylinders are sturdy, refillable gas bottles, widely available in several sizes for home or light commercial use. That bright blue colour makes them easy to spot and ensures you won’t mix them up with propane. Most people opt for the 15kg cylinder for room heaters, while a handier 4.5kg version suits camping and smaller appliances well.You can use these cylinders to power cabinet heaters, camping stoves, BBQs, patio heaters, and caravan or motorhome kit. Size really does matter here. Always check your appliance manual or ask a local gas supplier if you’re not sure which bottle to pick.
Using Calor Butane Indoors: Staying Safe
One reason why Calor Butane’s so popular is its suitability for indoor heaters, like cabinet models that are purpose-built for bottled gas. That said, safety should always come first. In the UK, you’re allowed to keep a maximum of 15kg of butane—or two bottles—indoors at one time. More than this risks your safety and isn’t permitted in residential properties.
Always store cylinders upright, out of direct sunlight and away from any kind of heat source—boilers, radiators, and flames are all a no-go. Never keep gas bottles in high-rise flats or anywhere fire regulations prohibit them. Place them somewhere secure and ventilated, so they’re protected from knocks or falls.
Why Choose Calor Butane for Room Heaters?
Butane burns cleanly, creating steady warmth without soot or smoke—ideal for room heaters and use inside. During colder spells, you’ll keep cosy without adding extra moisture or bothering with odd smells.
The flexibility is worth noting too. Calor Butane cylinders are made for easy fitting and moving, so you can shift a heater as needed or bring a small bottle on your next camping trip. They provide an affordable, targeted boost of warmth wherever you need it—no need for a costly hardwired setup.
