Only used the buublewrap once and soon realised that the bottle would benefit from any ambient warmth available in the van. Putting a longer length of the orange pipe between the regulator and the manifold was a better solution. When it's cold I bring the bottle out of the cupboard and into the main space of the van (to keep the bottle warm) and plug the gas alarm in (just in case of any leak whilst the bottle is further away from the drop-out hole).
