Hi

Does anybody know what  the gas consumption of a freezer (for an MH) unit is, I believe a fridge is quite small so once a freezer reaches its operation temperture is that all so small? If so how much?

regards

It is a question of how long is a piece of string regarding the consumption. It will depend upon the outside temperature. The hotter outside the more the cooling unit wil be on. Also depends on how cold you run your fridge/freezer. How often you open it etc.

Also with bottled gas, you are never sure how much you actually have in the fills are not constant. The way round that is via LPG as you can fill your cylider to the make prior to going away.

I have a single 11kg cylinder 21litres at 80%, and over a 2 week period in South of France & Spain used 12kg of gas, this was for heating the hot water, fridge, cooking and the BBQ.  I know this is not specific but should give an indication on whats what. Also bear in miond if it is cold you will be using heating as well.

Hi

Thanks for the replies. After some research the average figures seem to be 3 days for a freezer and 5 for a fridge at the use of 1Kg of butane gas.
