    Getting the regulator disconnected from the gas bottle can be tricky. Look at the black button described at 1:55 - the button under the on / off valve. When disconnecting the regulator from the bottle you need to press IN this button - it is not very intuitive unless it is explicitly indicated in your heater User Manual. It did my head in for a while also until I discovered it.

    Mobile gas heaters are fab,they kick out Loads of heat,but we need to open a window slighly..
    So much hotter than Lec & nice to have a warm glow..
    Thanks for tips 😘

    You need a 1 metre clear space around the heater to avoid any fire hazard and the front should be well away from furniture curtains and drapes as well as toys, soft furnishings and furniture coverings.

    Thank you for this video! I just bought a calor gar but the regulator has a rattling as though there is a loose part inside. I'm wondering if that is okay; the connections seems secure though.

    Do you need to open a window for the carbon monoxide?

    • @kaczkinson
      @kaczkinson 2 роки тому +1

      it must be a good ventilation. you need oxygen for living, heater needs oxygen for burning. plus - buy a CO sensor/alarm. it is not expensive but can save life

    • @anthonyperkins7556
      @anthonyperkins7556 11 місяців тому

      I don't, just regularly keep your heater serviced once a year by an LPG qualified Gas Safe engineer or Calor Gas main dealer or caravan dealer who services LPG appliances, and leave an inside door open for ventilation purposes i.e. a kitchen or conservatory door, that's all I do, no need for a carbon monoxide alarm at all. You should also check the flame colour and quality of burning regularly too and take action if you see a yellow tipped blue flame or completely yellow flame with soot, this indicates the burners and/or pilot light could be clogged with dirt and dust not allowing any airflow to burn cleanly.

    Anthony, This video does not show how to change a bottle. Only how to put a particular regulator on to a bottle., you do not show how to take it off. Mine does not have a button, are there other types of releases. Many thanks

    • @skiiddy
      @skiiddy 11 місяців тому

      The gas regulator toggle can double as the button too. Try closing the regulator then pushing it in towards the gas bottle. We have two heaters and one of the regulators works that way.

    on and off positions are marked on regulators, but there's no info how to take regulators off. some regulators got only this "on-off" lever, without the release button. to take them off you have to push this lever in.

    • @bereal6590
      @bereal6590 2 місяці тому

      Ah! That's the regulator I have. No bottle coupled but I can't seem to get the bottle to couple up. Its as you described, doesn't have the button below, is just the on/off. How do I connect it to the bottle? It doesn't just click on and I can't find a video showing it. It's a year since you commented but do you know how to do it? Thanks

    which direction is off? At beginning of video (0.26 sec) regulator switch is turned to face upwards to turn gas OFF but later (3.40) switch is turned upwards to turn gas ON. Which is correct?

    • @kaczkinson
      @kaczkinson 2 роки тому

      it is marked on regulator, just look at it. horizontal is off, vertical is on.

    Can I use either the blue or orange gas can? It currently has a blue one but it’s running out however I have a full orange one and was wondering if I could use that one??

    • @anthonyperkins7556
      @anthonyperkins7556 6 років тому +1

      Gaming Vids Sorry, no. Propane (red) or sometimes orange, is contained at a much higher pressure and as such, it must not be used indoors.
      It could cause a very dangerous situation indeed if propane is used in a domestic mobile gas heater i.e. too high a flame spreading dangerously out of the ceramic plaque burners due to the higher pressure contained and produced.
      You must use Calor Gas butane at 28mbar or indeed any other brand of butane cylinder i.e such as Flogas Birmingham Auto Gas Rix Countywide West Wales Gas etc using a suitable regulator as specified by the mobile heater manufacturer and fitted to your heater.

      Just turn off the portable gas knob on the top till the flame dies out sometimes it sputers but thats normal theres no need to worry unless there's a faulty gas hose in the back but you can get it checked out normally free when you buy your gas get the lads to check your portable gas heater no worries👍🔥
