So you have your lpg and LAV quals then?

Peaked my interest now.

Regulator screws onto the bottle itself?
how long was the hose?

pm sent!! right thats me showing my knowlage again then!!!! but i remember my old employer showing me a date on the regulator hoses before, and told me that they needed changing as they were past their date, . but i left him for a maintanance plumber job , so not rally done much gas , exept what i do in work (run new pipes to kitchen cooker point!!!) they sub most the other gas work , and all the servicing , breakdowns ect out!! so need to get back into it before i forget it all!

It will have an date on it, recommend that its replaced every 5 years or less depending on condition of hose, did some in 2009 that are up for replacement later this year,
