## Expert Knowledge

### Gas Systems in Spain
- Spain uses bottled gas (bombonas), not mains gas
- Butane (blue bottles): Most common in coastal areas, available at supermarkets
- Propane (orange bottles): Better for high-demand cooking, available at gas stations
- UK gas regulators DO NOT work in Spain — Spanish regulators and hoses required
- Regulator cost: approximately €15-25 at ferretería (hardware stores)

### BBQ Terrace Rules
- Most Spanish urbanizations allow gas and electric BBQs
- Charcoal BBQs may be restricted in some communities (fire risk)
- Enclosed ceramic grills (kamados) are generally accepted
- Always check with community president before installing
- Summer fire restrictions may apply in rural areas

### Why Buying Locally Matters
- Large BBQs are expensive to ship from UK/DE (€200-500 freight)
- Post-Brexit: UK imports require customs clearance and VAT payment
- Spanish warranty and after-sales support in English/German
- Local delivery included (no pallet-at-kerb issues)
- Expert advice on Spanish-specific requirements
