Repsol...Propane and Butane

Postby country boy » Tue May 19, 2020 10:55 am

Just been to town to change two Repsol Propane bottles and was told that Propane is not available from Repsol anymore for Private customers, commercial only. The lass swapped them for Cepsa with apologies and a nice smile so no probs. All sounds a bit Spanish to me...anybody else heard or experienced this?

Is it the same valve or did you have to buy a new one?

Do you really need propane?
To save me typing have a look at https://www.budgetpropaneontario.com/bl ... and-butane
When I lived in the UK I had a canal boat, always used butane.
Never had a problem even when th canal was frozen.

We do find that at our altitude when the Ambient Temperature falls below 4 degrees that Butane stops gassing on the bottles located outside the main building, it is quite usual to use Propane in these circumstances.
