How to Choose the Right LPG Cylinder Size
A short guide to 5kg, 11kg and 22kg LPG cylinders and which one usually suits which type of user.
Choosing a cylinder size mostly comes down to how much you cook, how much storage space you have, and how easily the cylinder needs to be moved.
5kg
A compact option for light use and small spaces. Easier to carry and store, but it will need replacing more often if you cook frequently.
11kg
A practical everyday household size. It suits most family kitchens that cook daily without unusually high consumption.
22kg
A larger option for higher usage, including households with heavy cooking routines and small commercial kitchens. It is heavier, so it needs a stable, ventilated placement.
