after 4 days my neighbours smelt gas and traced it to my fridge. We were out and they told us upon our return.
its running off a 4.5kg calor there still appears to be a good quantity of gas.
The top vent area has slightly burnt and the plastic pipes around the flue in the vent are also darkened. I'm awaiting the manufactures' comment - but meanwhile has anyone else had a problem on gas?
cheers

It's not a problem that I've heard of before. Have you been able to try the regulator and hose on a difference applicance? ------------- Piglet

sent it back to manufactures and they said theres nothing wrong with it.
they did cut down the ventilation grill a little
I've just ran it on gas this weekend and it was okay (though I turned it off at night time)
I'm always eering towards EHU now though as i dont like the smell you get with gas

Thanks,
looks like Im going to have to go down the same route with the manufacturer.I also ended turning it off at night then turned it off for good as the smell was to much to put up with and couldnt risk it with kids about....Oh well here we go!
