But there is another option that means you don\u2019t have to sacrifice your outdoor living area \u2013 in the form of LPG.<\/p>\n<p>An underground LPG tank can be buried and hidden from view \u2013 the only thing that is visible in your garden is a green cover that provides access for a delivery driver for when it&#8217;s time to refill your tank.<strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>No compromise<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>By selecting LPG, you also don\u2019t have to compromise on convenience or versatility, as it is just like having mains gas, and is perfectly suited to heating and hot water, as well as cookers, gas fires and tumble dryers.<\/p>\n<p>You\u2019ll even have all the benefits of cooking on gas with an instant, controllable flame and the additional reassurance that you can still cook in the event of a power cut.<\/p>\n<p>What\u2019s more, you can rest assured that you won\u2019t fall victim to fuel theft, which is common in rural areas as unsightly oil tanks are relatively easy to identify, pierce, and siphon oil from.<\/p>\n<p>In contrast, LPG is virtually impossible to steal, and as the tanks can be buried underground, it leaves more space for you to enjoy your outdoor living space.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Louis Deacon goes rural<\/strong><br \/>\n[youtube https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=uc8e1L1fUyU]\nFor former England rugby and Leicester Tigers star, Louis Deacon, moving to the countryside was the chance to get away from the stresses of town life. It was also the perfect opportunity to look at alternatives for heating his new home, which was fuelled by an old oil system.<\/p>\n<p>After learning about LPG and the benefits it offers rural homeowners, Louis spoke with his local heating installer, who advised Calor LPG would be a suitable fuel for his property.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe just wanted to feel like we were on mains gas \u2013 it was a very simple decision in the end for us\u201d, said Louis.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOne of the Calor representatives came out and we looked at different options of where we could place the tank. In the end we went for an underground tank which is great as it doesn\u2019t spoil our lovely garden.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe were also able to have the boiler in the house, where as before our old oil boiler was situated in an outbuilding which wasn\u2019t ideal. We now have easy access and the boiler and controls are really simple to use \u2013 it\u2019s just like being on mains gas.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWith the telemetry system we don\u2019t need to worry about reordering gas. As soon as the levels get low a delivery is automatically scheduled.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere\u2019s been a recent spate of oil theft, but we don\u2019t need to worry about that as gas is virtually impossible to steal. We\u2019d recommend the switch to Calor gas to anyone.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Calor are currently offering installation of an underground tank and gas connection for only \u00a31500.
