Butane V Propane

Not sure what the situation is where you are but here in North Lancashire it appears there is a shortage of Butane so it's proving vey difficult at present to obtain refills for the Calor 4.5kg blue canisters. Calor themselves said it's been an issue for several months and suggest I switch to propane and purcahse a new regulator as they don't see the situation improving any time soon. Good advice do you think?

Thanks

Propane is better for winter use as it vapourises down to lower temperatures so it makes sense for all year round use that propane is the better choice. The heading butane v lpg needs changing to butane v propane, lpg is more recognised as Autogas for refillable bottles and tanks.
