How Long Will a Gas Bottle Last Using an LPG Cooktop (LPG Gas Cooktop)?

That depends on the cooking gas LPG consumption rating of the LPG cooktop (LPG gas cooktop) burners being used.

Cooking gas LPG consumption is expressed in mega joules or MJ of energy.

One litre of cooking gas LPG has approximately 25MJ of energy content.

Gas-Bottles-On-HomeA 45kg gas bottle contains just a bit more than 88 litres or approximately 2200MJ of cooking gas LPG.

So, to determine how long the gas bottle will last, you divide 2200 by the MJ rating of the burner:

Example 1: a small 5MJ/H LPG cooktop (LPG gas cooktop) burner will run for approximately 440 hours* on a 45kg gas bottle (2200÷5=440)

Example 2: a large 12MJ/H LPG cooktop (LPG gas cooktop) burner will run for approximately 183 hours* on a 45kg gas bottle (2200÷12=183)

*Please note that the calculations shown assume that you use the burner on its maximum setting.

Cooking gas LPG consumption would be less, and the gas bottle would last longer, on lower settings, such as during simmering.

A 45kg gas bottle could last for a year or more when used just for an LPG cooktop (LPG gas cooktop).

The occasional use of an LPG gas oven would not change that substantially.
