It's a cheap house (if thats what you want), or, its an expensive 'old boat' if you want to go off cruising.

That I find even more unbelievable ................... From Goil energy "Basic facts about LPG" LPG is heavier than air. It is therefore difficult to disperse and should never be used or stored below ground level as this could result in suffocation when released in a confined space. Liquid LPG is about half the weight of water and therefore floats on top of water LPG is stored in cylinders under pressures approximately 7 bars (100 psi) as a liquid. It changes to gas when released into the atmosphere at room/ambient temperature. One volume of liquid LPG will produce approximately 250 volumes of gas when vapourised. When LPG burns it combines with air to produce carbon dioxide and water vapour. However if there is inadequate air and/or ventilation, or poor mixing of the air and gas, toxic carbon monoxide gas can be produced. As a result it is therefore necessary to open the kitchen windows when cooking to allow for complete combustion For every litre of liquid LPG burnt, approximately one litre of water vapour is produced. Liquid LPG freezes on contact with skin due to the rapid loss of heat caused by liquid vaporization. This results in cold burns. It acts as a solvent on certain petroleum and natural rubber compounds. So hoses have to be of special resistant materials in order to prevent reaction with the LPG. ‘Empty’ cylinders are still dangerous because they are NOT empty. There is still a residual amount of gas inside an ‘empty’ cylinder which can ignite and produce an explosion.

If you don't open the door, particularly overnight, it can be several hours between the compressor running.

550ml = 1 imp pint - It is a lot of water to run down the windows / walls.

Well, he logged on 48 minutes ago so one would assume (if he is human) that he would look at his post for any activity.

What is this certificate of conformity ? Is this the RCD certificate ?

1 litre of LPG produces 1 litre of water vapour. I didn't believe it wwhen I was first told - do a Google !

So it's "Dai the Goat" now rather than "Dai the Sheep"

That, in theory, equates to ~32Ah. I have measured the actual 24 hour usage of my 12v dometic fridge at 30Ah on a number of occasions but obviously depends on the battery voltage the ambient temperature, number of door openings etc etc.

It seems to becoming more and more common, very easy to find in cities such as Leicester, parts of Birmingham and Bradford. It does seem to be very much an Indian speciality

Yes they were - and they were porcelain ones, as standard 'ceramic' ones couldn't stand the heat and cracked

But you'd then need to turn on the de-humidifier to remove all the condensation / water vapour caused by using the gas stove.

And the coal-scuttle in the background is from a dolls house.

I have had one on a 30 foot boat - it was rated at (I think 3Kw) but still got the boat up to over 50C before we gave in and opened the windows and doors. Not really a 'log burner' more a matchstick burner we could not even get the preformed sawdust blocks in without splitting them. The door is 4" square. We could get it to stay in ovenight by filling it full with 13 pieces of smokeless (brillo pads). Dimensions are on the website. Be aware that the flue size is non-standard and you can (could) only get it from the Stove supplier. The flue cost more than the stove.
