Well I did all last Winter in Spain without any issues after seeking the views from other funsters that is was an acceptable practice. But a couple of days ago noticed a very slight smell of gas in the locker and it turned out to be from the end of the connector for my propane cylinder. Now it should not be necessary to have the cylinder connected because there are one way valves built in. But I now have it official from Gaslow that the effect of reversing the flow can result in the valves failing to seat correctly.
I was already aware that Gaslow recommend using the remote cylinder hose 01-4500, I was just not aware of the implications of the 'back-flow' process.
