Switching Butane Superser to Propane

Hi all,

I have a superser gas heater, which I have been buying flogas 13kg 21mm cylinders for.
I recently had a duff cylinder, which flogas are replacing, but in the meantime I have a 6kg calor propane cylinder and reg from my old caravanning days.

Will the red setup work well with my superser, or will I need to wait for flogas to eventually sort themselves out and get me a replacement?

Thanks in advance

Martin

    It should be ok most LPG appliance work with either butane or propane provided you use the correct regulator. 28mb for Butane & 37mb for Propane.
    There's probably a label somewhere on or in your heater with this info.

    It's heavier than air so if there should be a leak it pools. A spark & BOOM, :eek:

    regards,

    Butane is also heavier than air.
