Brittanny Petrenko : Location, location, location,Without location it is always difficult to give meaningful advice ! More on how this effects your question right now but generally
this is nearly always the biggest obstacle to getting good answers !
Please google the "Boiling Point'' of 1) Propane, and 2) Butane. Because Propane has a much lower "boiling point' a tank or bottle of Propane Always has a 'cloud' of propane
vapor available for immediate use as a flammable gas ! This 'cloud' of gas persists even to the very dregs of liquid propane at the bottom of the tank! you never 'run out of -
propane' (GAS) until the tank is completely empty !
Because of the Higher Temperature that Butane "boils at'' a 1/2 full Butane tank will stop producing a Vapor cloud of Butane when the rapidly cooling tank reaches -1º Ç or
31ºƒ .
To say it a different way if the outside temperature is say 40ºƒ and the partially empty butane tank rapidly cools down below its 'Boiling point' it will quickly reach its Vaporization
pressure or its Latent heat of evaporation ! Result -zero production of butane gas from the super chilled liquid Butane .
To prove it yourself,try using a small partial butane tank on a cold morning and notice when you need to 'swap-out the butane tanks' and then later when the outside temperature
and the previously used butane tank have both warmed up to say 70ºƒ -suddenly you have more than enough gas for cooking a simple but complete meal !
There are many places in the U.S. Southwest where butane is the primary fuel stored in large outdoor tanks - even there the tanks must be kept full during colder weather to insure
adequate vaporization pressure for early morning domestic use !
Short version, if your local dealer does not offer to install and service butane tanks, don't ask for it !
Late note : Butane does NOT burn cleaner than Propane, Because Butane is a "Lighter than air gas'' it does not settle into the lowest areas of a confined space the way propane might!
This is why Butane is a very popular fuel for use on-board boats where a small propane leak could case propane to settle and form a dangerously explosive and unseen cloud of gas-
this is the reason that they add an obnoxious odorant to make propane gas leaks detectable !
Again, always go with propane if it is offered ! Hope this is timely and useful, for the good of the crafts! Big AL
