I'm having a Gaslow system fitted on Friday but it looks like I won't be able to get an 11Kg Gaslow alongside my existing 6Kg Propane which is the way I wanted it set up.

The plan was to install an autp-changeover so that if the Gaslow 11Kg ran out it would switch to the spare Propane bottle.

However, the locker looks so small that it won't accomodate the larger bottle. Anyone had this configuration on their Voyager? Or do Swift know what can fit in there.

Any advice or help would be much appreciated. Cool Cool

Hi Kennyo

Yes indeed. My 679 has 2 x 13 kg Calor cylinders in it. The previous van was the same, later converted to Gaslow.

I raised the point about dimensions for the Gaslow cylinders as this might help Kath or whoever determine what the locker can actually hold on a Voyager.

You guys are sooooooo helpful. Thanks a million. Ovalball, how long does the 11Kg last you? The option is I suppose to have a 6kg Gaslow and the 6kg Propane, but if that only lasts as long as an 11kg Gaslow then I may as well just have the 11kg on it's own and then I won't need more stainless steel pipes and an autochange connector etc. Sad
