What is an LPG boiler?
LPG (Liquid Petroleum Gas) is a mixture of propane and butane that is held at moderate pressure. LPG boilers heat water in the central heating system using liquid petroleum gas stored in an external storage tank. This is the perfect alternative to those who do not have access to the mains gas supply and work in a very similar way to oil and gas boilers. You will need space for an additional storage tank to be able to store the fuel so you can use it whenever you want!
Where and how to store an LPG storage tank
An LPG storage tank is necessary to install and run an LPG boiler at your home. It also needs to be refilled on a regular basis, either by a company that you have signed up to that can send a truck to schedule a refill or by smaller LPG cylinders or bottles. Most LPG storage tanks have a device that alerts you when it's time to refuel.
An LPG tank can be as small as 1m by 2m footprint and can be put either above or below ground. When installing the LPG tank, it will be necessary to consider the situation and legislation surrounding LPG. However, this is something that we can help you with.

LPG boilers typically cost more to operate than oil boilers. LPG boilers, on the other hand, are less expensive to install and may be easily combined with renewable energy sources. LPG is also a very efficient fuel, so you get a lot of value for every unit of energy.
It's important to remember that the cost of running an LPG boiler is determined by a variety of factors, including:
