The heater comes with a bayonet fitting, we do not supply a hose to a POL fitting.
Below are some reasons explaining why the Superheat 2 LPG heater cannot be directly connected to a 9kg LPG bottle.
These explanations come directly from the Instruction Manual. The heater has been approved and certified according to the installation instructions and so must be installed accordingly.
- As per page 4, “This appliance must not be connected directly to a gas cylinder”.
- As per page 4, “NOT TO BE CONNECTED TO AN LPG GAS CYLINDER LOCATED INDOORS.”
- As per page 4, “NOTE: The hose assembly inlet (male bayonet) on this heater MUST BE connected only to a certified approved female floor socket rated to 7kPa”.
- As per page 2, “Room volume must be a minimum of 105 cubic metres (Note: this is typically a room size of approx. 8m x 6m x 2.4m ceiling height)”.
- The connection that they come fitted with is a bayonet fitting to go into a wall that has the specific connection. These permanent fittings in the wall are installed by a gas fitter who knows the corresponding standards as to where they are allowed.
For example, they cannot be installed in bedrooms or residential garages as explained on the NSW Government Fair Trading website: https://www.fairtrading.nsw.gov.au/trades-and-businesses/construction-and-trade-essentials/gasfitters/gas-standards-and-notes/location-of-connection-point-for-gas-hose-assembly
