It is not different to attaching and removing non-refillable bottles, in fact I think it is safer as you don't have to continually keep undoing and re-tightening the nuts.I still wonder if there had been an accident, and the insurance assessor had seen a gas installation without evidence of qualified gas fitter involvement, whether they would have used that as an excuse not to pay out.
I can't remember whether I got it from Gasit or LPG shop: You don't have to buy all the kit from the same place and it can sometimes work out cheaper to get some from one, and some from another even with postage.Minxy Girl, are you able to help as to where I can get one of those small fillers please?

See my reply, #10Minxy Girl, are you able to help as to where I can get one of those small fillers please?
Gaslow in Loughborough certainly used to have a fitting service. Worth a call.i don,t know if gaslow fit systems or supply only.but i can say they are very helpful and,based in loughborough they would i'm sure give advice on instalation if needed.i've twice been to there premises to buy parts and only today had a filler hose replaced free of charge. can only recommend them.

I have looked at refillable gas bottles , am I correct in thinking aLot of UK filling Stations are stopping supplying gas ?Thanks Brian, the You-tube video I have seen shows the installer using a hole saw to install the external filler - this is the bit that gets me worried!!!!!!!

Yes the ferules are only really decorative as they only hold the plastic covering in place as the stainless steel convoluted hose is welded on to the fittingsthe end feral had some play.when i spoke to gaslow they explained that it was still perfectly safe but replaced it any way.
Gaslow provide instructions (that I have followed) of how and how not to install the filler in a door.The main problem with fitting to ANY door , is one of unnecessary flexing of the Supply pipe and associated fittings ! As an aside many of the ‘Professional’ Installers and Motorhome Suppliers just either do not recognise this problem , or just ignore it out of convenience !

Do this still support that method though? I thought they discouraged it completely now?Gaslow provide instructions (that I have followed) of how and how not to install the filler in a door.
But do Gaslow still approve this sort of fitting? The brochures/info showing that is from a few years ago and I can't find anything on their site now about it being fitted that way - can you find anything that is 'up to date' from them?A properly thought out and sensibly mounted, sufficiently long enough hose shouldn't cause a problem if fitted to a door. Another option would be to mount the filler point inside the locker, onto a suitable bracket screwed to the inside of the locker wall, floor or ceiling.

My photo of the leaflet is from a new system that I installed only 3 years ago (in June '17).But do Gaslow still approve this sort of fitting? The brochures/info showing that is from a few years ago and I can't find anything on their site now about it being fitted that way - can you find anything that is 'up to date' from them?

When you need to turn the bottles on/off you'll have to open the door, eg when filling etc.I have fitted my own and used the same filler that Minxy Girl has, fastened to the rear bumper, but as to fitting one to the locker door, why there would be a problem, because once fitted there will be no need to open the door again.
