At Caravan Helper, we come across the question noted in the heading. To answer the question what size gas bottle you need for your touring caravan, you will need to think about what appliances you use that need gas and how much gas you need for your caravan in general. Nobody really works out exactly how much gas they use every day, but most users find they use 0.8 and 1.5kg of gas every day. When the weather is warmer in the summer you will use less gas than you usually do in colder times, say during the Winter, and you will also require less gas if you are using an electric hook-up,<\/a> or use electricity for some of the heating, cooking, and refrigeration. <\/span><\/p>\n

To decide which size gas bottle<\/a> you need, think about the size of your caravan and how many appliances you need. A single 6kg propane cylinder will be enough for a cooker, a space heater, a fridge, and a water heater and will give about 0.8kg of gas per hour.<\/a> You might need a bigger bottle if you are using all those appliances, a grill, and four gas rings at the same time. The size of your caravan should also be taken into account. Bigger caravans will require more gas.<\/span><\/p>\n
