Length of LPG run

[Ianm]

Does anyone know approximately what sort of length of run provides acceptable pressure from LPG bottles to an appliance? Does it change if the same bottle is used for 2 appliances (IE cooker and fire)? Does it also change with any turns in the pipe?

Thanks

Yes

Why do YOU want to know?

very cryptic!

The reason I want to know is because I need to decide whether to put in an oil fired heater / fire in my living room or LPG. If I put LPG in I would like to make use of the bottles I already have for my cooker rather than have to have 4 bottles in my back garden. The 2 existing bottles are currently at the wrong end of the house to easily connect through to the living room.

I am not looking to do any of this myself, just want to know what options I have re oil vs lpg.
