    Sorry I wasn't being coy! It's with Midlands LPG, signed up with them 2 years ago at 43ppl and just renewed again at same price. Really good company to deal with.

    Thanks .. good prices and good services should be advertised!

    Living in Kent, I'm assuming they won't want to deal with me, and their website doesn't say what area they cover. But if you're anywhere around the midlands, worth a try …

    Has anyone had this email from Flogas, or their own supplier?

    "As the current heatwave continues, we'd like to share some simple advice to help you look after your LPG tank.

    First, the good news is that your bulk LPG tank is designed to operate safely
    outdoors all year round, including during periods of hot weather. It's
    fitted with built-in safety features, including a Pressure Relief Valve (PRV), which safely releases pressure if the temperature inside the tank becomes too high.

    In very hot weather (typically above 32°C),
    you may occasionally hear the PRV venting gas. While this is uncommon, if it does happen. it's simply your tank's safety system working exactly as it should.

    The biggest risk during a heatwave isn't the sunshine itself - it's additional heat sources or ignition sources near the tank, such as BBQs, fire pits, bonfires or damaged equipment.

    If you notice your tank venting:

    ✔️ Stay calm - the valve is designed to do this to protect the tank.
    ✔️ Call the Flogas Emergency Team on 03457 200 100 so we can provide advice.
    ✔️ Keep all sources of ignition away from the tank.
    ✔️ If it's safe to do so, you can use a hose with a spray attachment to gently cool the surface of the tank from a safe distance.
    ✔️ Avoid standing near the Pressure Relief Valve, as it may vent again without warning.

    A few simple checks during a heatwave
    Taking a minute to check around your tank can help keep everything running safely:

    ✅ Keep the area around your tank clear and well ventilated.
    ✅ Remove weeds, long grass, garden waste and other combustible materials from around the tank.
    ✅ Avoid using BBQs, fire pits, bonfires or other naked flames near your LPG tank.
    ✅ Make sure you know where your emergency shut-off valve is located.

    Just wondering if anyone else has experienced venting?!
