We use Hadjittofis, tel 96845406.
I think that they were the supplier of the tank because they know where it is from the tank number.

LPG is a mixture of propane and butane. It is cheaper than either of the single gases.
In summer, the proportion of propane is higher in the mix and in winter there is more butane. For this reason, if used for central heating, it may be better to fill up in the winter.
The other way around, surely?

I just buy the gas when I need it, around 4 times a year..
Oh and by the way... Don't wait until there is frost on the ground to see if your boiler works.
Get it serviced now if it hasn't had one in the last 12 months..

Good advice Trev. Last Winter, when we turned the central heating on, it didn't work until we had a service (€50).
For us, the annoying thing is that we pay for servicing here as well as our house in the UK which we let out. It seems we must pay as Landlords and also as Tenants!

Well you would see it if you came up to Polemi or Fiti or the Kathikas areas.

I remember early one February morning, just after sunrise, (cannot remember the year, but early 2000's), my mate picking me up from the Theseas Apartments in K.Paphos to drop me off at PFO.
The scene for the whole journey was a wonder to behold! Just like Trev's photo above! Sometimes, snow DOES reach the coast in Paphos, never mind the foothills...
Cheers- AL

Dominic, Apart from Trevor, I know of others in our village who use Synergas, so you should have no problems there.
