If your hospitality business is not on the mains gas network, LPG is likely your most practical option for heating, hot water and commercial cooking. Pure LPG supplies bulk LPG to hospitality businesses across the UK, with straightforward contracts and a reliable delivery service.
Pubs, restaurants and event venues have always been heavy gas users. Kitchens run all day. Heating needs to be consistent. Hot water demand is high. If your site is off-grid, that means you need a fuel that behaves like mains gas without the infrastructure costs.
LPG does that job well. It burns cleanly, gives chefs the instant, controllable flame they need, and can power everything from commercial ovens and fryers to boilers and patio heaters from a single supply.
We work with hospitality businesses of all sizes, from single-site country pubs to multi-venue operators. Depending on your usage and site layout, we can supply:
We will assess your site before recommending a setup. There is no obligation and no hard sell. If you are switching over from another supplier, we will liaise with your existing supplier and carry out the tank swap within a few hours. We will also transfer across any used gas from your existing tanks so you won't lose out on any money.
Gas remains the preferred fuel for professional kitchens. It responds instantly, gives precise heat control and performs consistently whether you are running a lunch service or a full evening of covers.
LPG works with the same commercial appliances as mains gas, including range cookers, flat-top griddles, fryers, combination ovens and steamer units. If your kitchen already runs on gas, switching to LPG as a supply is straightforward.
LPG is not just a cooking fuel. For hospitality businesses, it typically covers:
Space heating
Boilers and warm air units running on LPG keep dining rooms, function spaces and staff areas at a consistent temperature without relying on expensive electric heating.
Hot water
High-demand hot water systems for commercial kitchens and guest facilities work reliably on LPG, even at peak service times.
Outdoor areas
Patio heaters, pizza ovens, BBQ setups and outdoor bar areas all run on bottled propane. We can supply the cylinders and arrange regular exchanges so you are never caught short (depending on your area).
A number of hospitality businesses still run on heating oil. If you are looking at alternatives, LPG is worth comparing seriously. It produces lower carbon emissions than oil, is harder to steal, and does not carry the same risk of tank leaks or fuel contamination. Some businesses also find it easier to manage budgeting with LPG, particularly with fixed-price contracts.
We can talk you through the cost comparison honestly. If oil makes more sense for your site, we will tell you.
We supply LPG to a range of hospitality and entertainment businesses, including:
If you run any kind of food and drink operation off the mains gas network, we can supply you.
Yes. LPG is a direct alternative to mains gas for hospitality businesses. It works with the same commercial appliances - cookers, fryers, griddles, combination ovens - and delivers the same instant, controllable flame. If your site is off the mains gas network, LPG is usually the most practical like-for-like replacement.
Most hospitality businesses use a bulk LPG tank, either above or below ground on site. Pure LPG schedules regular deliveries based on your usage so you do not need to monitor levels manually. For lower-volume or more flexible requirements, cylinder gas is also an option.
Switching from an existing LPG supplier is usually completed within a few hours. We liaise directly with your current supplier, carry out the tank swap and transfer any remaining gas from your old tank so you do not lose out financially. There is no disruption to your service during the changeover.
Yes. Bottled propane is widely used in hospitality for patio heaters, outdoor pizza ovens, BBQ setups and outdoor bar areas. We can supply propane cylinders and arrange regular exchanges so you are not left without supply during busy periods.
LPG produces lower carbon emissions than heating oil and is generally easier to manage operationally. It does not carry the same risk of fuel theft or tank contamination that oil can. Some businesses also find budgeting more straightforward with LPG, particularly on fixed-price contracts. Whether LPG or oil makes more financial sense for a specific site depends on usage levels and location, and we are happy to talk through the numbers honestly.
Tank size depends on your site's usage - a busy kitchen running full service every day will need a larger tank than a seasonal venue or a small cafe. We can carry out a site assessment before recommending anything, so you are not over- or under-specified.
In most cases, yes. Commercial kitchen equipment designed for mains gas will typically run on LPG with a simple conversion, usually just a change of jet and regulator adjustment. This is standard work for a Gas Safe registered engineer. We can advise on what is involved for your specific appliances.
