Making the switch

It's easy, let us know that you want to opt in for auto top-ups and we'll take it from there. A telemetry device* will be installed to the tank, (unless you already have one). Once activated, it'll signal to us and we'll know your usage and levels.

On our way to top you up...

You won't need to do anything as we'll know when you need a delivery. You can opt-in for text updates, so you'll know the working day before that we'll pop by to top-up the tank.

It's really that simple

Calor makes energy simple. With one less thing to do, you don't miss out on the moments you love. Choose auto top-ups, and you'll be sure your heating, cooking, and hot water run smoothly. It's quick, simple, and free to opt-in.

Why opt-in for auto-ordering?

  • No surprises

    No last-minute (cold) runs into the garden to check your tank levels. Auto top-up means you'll always have the right amount of gas, at the right time - say 'no' to running on empty.
  • Flexibility

    Whether you need gas every month, every few months, or whenever you use it up... auto-ordering knows your energy needs, to help keep life a little simpler.
  • Save (more) emissions

    Our system monitors your usage and plans ahead for your delivery schedule. Being on auto-ordering means we can optimise delivery routes and reduce emissions together. Better planned journeys, more efficiency!

Auto-ordering: FAQs

A Calors telemetry device is a technical unit which can be installed onto a bulk LPG tank to help monitor gas levels and usage. Once the device is installed, it uses GPRS signals to update our ordering system of the gas levels in the tank. We'll know when the tank needs a top-up.
Auto ordering is available to all Calor home energy and commercial customers who have a bulk tank - either above or below ground. If you're not sure if you're eligible, contact our team, and we'll help determine if this service is right for you.

Auto-ordering is designed to prevent any tank run-outs. But, when you are a domestic auto top-up customer and we ever leave you without gas, please let us know and we can schedule an order for next-day delivery.1 And where applicable we'll credit your account with a goodwill payment of £100.2, 3
