We recently had our old hot water cylinder removed and converted to continuous gas (LPG bottles).

 

As I understand it, when the first bottle runs out of gas it switches over to the second bottle automatically and the indicator turns red to let you know you need to order a bottle swap.

 

After 5 or 6 weeks I noticed that the indicator had turned red, OK first bottle must be empty right? Later the same day it was back to green. Next morning was red, that afternoon green again. Same the next day and the next.

 

Is this normal if a bottle is nearly empty?

Our indicator thing broke not long after being installed but we never bothered to get it fixed.
We just leave one bottle off until the other runs out then open it. Wait a few weeks then order a replacement and that one stays closed until the other runs out. Rinse and repeat.
We've just had our fifth replacement bottle for the year.
