Buying your first gas bottle
Step 2
A store colleague will bring your Flogas bottle, but remember you'll need to purchase a separate hire agreement before it's ready for use.
Step 3
You'll receive a Legal & Safety leaflet with your Flogas bottle. It explains how to care for and store your bottle safely. For added security, you can register your new agreement with Flogas at home. Simply fill out the back of the form and send it in the provided envelope (free postage) – this allows Flogas to reach you directly if they ever need to recall a batch of cylinders.
Step 4
After completing your purchase, please head immediately outside to secure your gas bottle in your car. You're then welcome to return for further shopping.
How to replace your empty gas bottle
Step 2
Upon arrival, place your empty Flogas bottle in a suitable trolley. If you have placed a gas refill order online, you can go to the Click + Collect area to pick it up, otherwise go straight to the checkout area.
Step 3
For Click + Collect orders just give your reservation number to a store colleague. If you’re buying a new bottle in store, let a store colleague know you'd like to replace your empty Flogas bottle. They'll handle the swap and ensure your old bottle is taken away.
Step 4
After your purchase is complete, immediately head outside to secure your new gas bottle in your car. You're then welcome to return for further shopping.
Gas bottle and refill FAQs
We've put together some frequently asked questions on our gas bottles service.
What is the difference between propane (leisure gas) and butane gas
Propane and butane are both used as fuel gases, but they have different properties that make them better suited for different applications.
Propane is ideal for year-round use due to its much lower boiling point. This makes it a popular choice for outdoor appliances like BBQs, even in cold weather. While both can be used with BBQs, propane is generally preferred.
Butane, on the other hand, is commonly used for camping stoves and indoor heaters because it's cheaper and has a boiling point, which is sufficient for most indoor uses.
Do I have to exchange my cylinder for one the same size?
No - you can swap between sizes without the need to purchase a new agreement.
How old do I need to be to buy a gas cylinder?
To be able to purchase or replace a gas cylinder bottle you must be 18 years or older. Proof of age may be requested at store.
What do I do if I no longer need my gas cylinder - can I bring it back to store?
If you find you no longer require the use of your Flogas cylinder, you can return it to your local TradePoint store and receive a £10 refund from TradePoint. Alternatively you can contact Flogas directly on 0800 574574 for collection, although there is no refund available if collected.
