Only do that with the bottle disconnected.
Turning it upside down draws liquid gas, and big flames from whatever is turned on, rather than vapour. .
Many years ago I did that with a super-ser cabinet heater. Liquid gas shot out the burner plate and still burning set fire to the lounge carpet.
I think old age is setting in , read post #5 , already covered
Don‘t you pick on my Uncle PPJ.
I'm with Maisson on this one...and I believe it is totally irresponsible of Brains to suggest inverting a gas cylinder is a good idea.Do not turn the bottle upside down! Under any circumstances.
I attended at least three incidents where people had done that. The result, seven people injured. Two seriouslyo burned.
If you turn the bottle upside down you get liquid gas, not the vapour. It can produce flames of up to 2 metres.
That is extremely dangerous. Do not do if!
I would check it at some point so it doesn't let you down. Its very easy, just light the gas rings and turn on the heating, if the gas rings go out when the boiler fires, order a new regulator.She ! Is going to put Up with it now, we have just realised that we have not used the van since January. Of course the gas at home is a lot stronger and fierce so she was expecting to be same, which it not. Thanks for all the replies. Colyboy
