In the case of natural gas, there is a risk of scarcity in winter 2022/2023, while liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) is still available in sufficient quantities. Many people who own a gas stove or a gas hob are therefore wondering whether they can simply convert from using natural gas to LPG. We tell you whether this is possible and how it works! Read more
First of all, there are, of course, risks when handling LPG, i.e. propane and butane. However, this is nothing unusual in our daily lives. If you don’t adhere to certain safety rules, electricity, fuel oil or fire are also potentially dangerous media or elements. In this article we show what needs to be taken into account when handling and using gas cylinders so that private use remains safe and convenient – just as it has been for decades!

Devices operated with LPG, such as outdoor heaters, radiant heaters or patio heaters, are not generally prohibited for hospitality, bars and pubs; it depends on the regulations for the respective city or municipality. However, coronavirus might cause this to change (as at September 2020).
When the evenings become cooler, gas-operated heaters are frequently used on balconies and patios, or in outdoor areas in the hospitality industry. The names of the heaters are different – outdoor heaters, radiant heaters, patio heaters – but one thing they all have in common is that operators require a gas cylinder, pressure reducer, excess flow device for the hose and a gas anti-tilt device. In addition, there are requirements for the safe handling of the heaters – for private individuals as well as for use in restaurants, pubs or bars.
In order to connect a gas stove in the household or in a large kitchen with a gas cylinder or a pressure reducer, hose assemblies made of stainless steel (metal corrugated hose, stainless steel corrugated tube) or metal braided corrugated pipes are used sometimes. This raises the question whether the usual replacement period also applies here.

The Senso4s level gauge for gas cylinders is kept very simple in terms of handling.

The requirement: A stable energy supply for gas stoves and hobs in the host’s kitchen. The solution: A four-cylinder system consisting of 33 kg gas cylinders. Because the operator really doesn’t want to have to constantly replace the gas cylinders when they’re operating continuously. However, before the final start-up of the system, the user or the system constructor should deal with the details in a targeted manner, especially with the combination of the components of the cylinder system.

The initial situation: The LPG tank is outside the building, the gas equipment is inside. The problem: In order to connect both with each other, we have to go through the house wall in one place. The solution: a wall duct for the piping – if necessary even with integrated main shut-off device. Read more
