My Gas Bottle Is Running Out

Featured Replies

  • Popular Post

It has been in the cupboard next to the oven for a couple of years, and I've forgotten where I got it from - somewhere in Rawai or Chalong, I think.

Can anyone suggest where I could take it to swap for a full one?

Thanks!

 

Here's a picture of it:

    Have you tried Unique Gas?!  

  • As you seem to have gas located inside home give a good inspection to that plastic hose and might be wise to invest in a leak safety regulator which will cut off flow in case of a leak.  Can buy as pa

You sure don't cook much.

 

As pointed out by Hammer, your neighbor should be able to point you to the closest place to exchange your gas bottle. 

 

It's roughly 425 baht. 

 

Very tidy under your sink!

You can fill it up at a gas station.

Look for the LPG sign

I'm not in Rawai or even Phuket but we have gas delivery guys around our way. Just phone them up, they bring a full bottle, fit it and take the old.

I always do that now after an experience several years ago. Bought a brand new 4 kg gas bottle for the Wife to cook on outside ( frying chillis!!). When it ran out the Father in Law was visiting, and he took it to the shop for a refill. He came back with the oldest, mankiest, rusty bottle you have ever seen. When I asked the Wife were my new bottle was she said "oh, that is ok, they always give you a replacement to save you waiting for it to be filled. Needless to say, without repeating the swear words on here, I went to the shop with her, and got my new bottle back. The look on the guy's face was a picture to behold.

And he is online asking people.  

I take mine to the nearest LPG station and ask them to fill it up.

Most have the adaptor for bottle's as well as for cars.

I thought that option had disappeared due to differing tax levels on cooking gas as from fuel gas.

Actually, I also have a gas cooker with a separate identical bottle. That one has "March, Sai Yuan" stuck to it on a "Post-It" sticker.

 

I don't think that was March this year...  ????

All done! The young boy there (12 - 15?) speaks English and said the older man would follow me home on his bike. 

465 Baht.

 

For anyone in Rawai, can add theses numbers to your mobile.

LPG cylinders require periodic hydrostatic pressure testing for safety reasons. The date of the last pressure test should be stamped on the neck of the bottle. Taking it to a vendor and exchanging it for a full bottle should ensure that you get an 'in date' bottle.

Here are pictures of my two regulators. 

Can you determine from the photos if they are of the type that you recommend?:

^ Not 645 baht as on sticker, but 465 baht.

They are not the safety type - that type will have the brass button that you can press to restart gas flow as in my photo.  They do not cost that much more and adds a bit more safety.

Thanks, I'll get a couple of these:

I don’t blame you the ones we use are our own and refill.

I have never seen any requirement here about internal inspection.

The couple we had in Australia for the barbecue had to be inspected every x years and stamped.

They wouldn’t refill them otherwise.

You buy your first gas bottle, after that they swap it for a tested  refilled, bottle, you just pay for the gas refill, a nice safety arrangement.  :stoner:
