Propane (C3H8) is a form of LPG (Liquefied Petroleum Gas). Propane is a gas but can be liquefied and stored in a propane gas bottle. With a low boiling point of -42°C, propane isn’t affected by cold conditions in the U.K and is therefore ideal for outdoor use.
Thanks to the high octane rating, propane is ideal for heating, as it’s efficient and produces more energy per cubic metre than other forms of fuel. Additionally, propane is a cleaner burner than other fossil fuels, and doesn’t contaminate groundwater or soil.
