    Yes, propane! Most #narrowboats have #propane #cookers. It can also be used for #heating. Alde is probably the leading brand for producing #propane boilers for boats that will run radiators as a #domestic #boiler will.

    #Diesel #heaters are also popular. Eberspacher and Webasto being the main brands though many fit very competitively priced Chinese units, but I read somewhere that they are not approved for marine use and should they start a fire insurance would be invalid.

    A few #liveaboard boaters have larger Aga or Rayburn oil or solid fuel fired cookers that will also drive radiators

    I referred to #cooker rather than #stove deliberately. Almost all privately owned narrow boats have small traditional style #solidfuel
    (wood/coal) stoves fitted. On 19th century #boats theses would have been used both for heating and cooking. On modern boats they are usually stand alone heaters in the saloon, but some will be fitted with boilers and drive radiators elsewhere on the boat.

    Nous sommes intervenus hier Route de Montblanc suite à un #AVP spectaculaire impliquant un camion citerne transportant 3400 litres de #propane La route a été coupée une grande partie de l’après midi Pas de blessé a déplorer #InfoFlash

  3. New research links gas and propane stove emissions to asthma, lung cancer, and other health risks.

    Transitioning to electric could reduce exposure by over 50%.

  4. @ai6yr I've seen advertising for a turnkey business which was a propane tank recycling operation on a trailer that you were supposed to take around to campsites on Monday mornings. I think you were supposed to collect money from the campsite and get money for the metal and propane.
    The trailer had machinery for sucking the last of the propane out of one pound bottles and then puncturing and flattening them.

  5. Hmm, I guess a big-old-pile of propane tanks isn't the best thing when they catch on fire. Also... How do you end up with a giant, giant unorganized pile of propane tanks with fuel still in them?!?!

  6. Fixed my ancient propane tank problem... tank swap. #propane #safety

  7. Different guy at the gas station. He started to argue with me but apparently didn't have energy to. He rummaged on the BACK OF THE SHELF and gave me the newest tank they had (date code: 2023). Then he put the leaky one (date code: 2008) back on the shelf in front. 😬 #propane

  8. Hmm, have I owned this propane tank that long?! I guess it's going to get traded. #propane

  9. Me trying to get information in an online search about how water is a byproduct of propane combustion is like listening to ten drunk do-it-yourselfers arguing affably about it ("the molecules are father apart!" "it's condensation!") except one of them is an actual propane plumber who knows what they're talking about, but I don't know which one.

    Thanks AI "enhanced" search.

  10. ❄️ Greener cooling with propane
    At the recent EnerNET network meeting, Hof University’s iwe institute inaugurated a new propane refrigeration system at the Münchberg campus.

    The high-tech test facility aims to make cooling processes more efficient and sustainable — a key step toward climate-friendly energy use. 🌱⚙️

  11. Paid my propane bill, and since New Mexico is getting an epic cold front this week, wanted to order a refill for Friday.

    "Sorry," I am told. "Our truck broke down. We'll add you to the list."

    First of all, you only have 1 truck? Second....

  12. 3rd heat pump clothes dryer option: Bosch WQB245B0UC

    Pros:

    - Refrigerant is R-290 / Propane, which has a low GWP. In the past I saw R290 listed as 3.3 GWP, but Wikipedia now cites an IPCC document for GWP 0.072 over 20 years, which is shockingly low: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propane_

    Cons:

    - Can't find reviews
    - 240V
    - small capacity, 4.0 Cu Ft
