Portable gas fires are the ideal option for a cold patch in your house or areas where electricity and gas supply is not available. They are particularly suitable for caravans, motorhomes or boats as they are portable. Major brands include:

  • DeLonghi
  • Broseley Thurcroft
  • Super Ser
  • Calor Gas
  • Elba
  • Pifco

A potential downside to a portable gas heater is that it can cause condensation so it needs to be used in a well ventilated area. A 15 kg gas bottle should give around 200 hours of heat. You may need to put down a deposit on the cylinder. Other types of gas fire run on 7kg cylinders. They generally produce up to about 4.2kw of heat depending on size.
