Gqeberha: the supply, the weather and the buildings
Gqeberha is the windy city, and the steady wind off Algoa Bay carries salt a long way inland, so cylinders, valves, regulators and cage hinges rust faster than in drier towns. LPG reaches the metro by road and through the port area, and is sold by dealers, refill stations, hardware stores and delivery services in most suburbs. Homes in Walmer, Summerstrand and Newton Park cook and heat water with gas, restaurants on the beachfront run gas ranges, and the motor component plants and warehouses in Struandale, Deal Party and Markman use forklift and welding gas. Strong wind can also blow out pilot lights and patio heaters, so place outdoor appliances with care.
The requests we see from Gqeberha usually come from:
- Homeowners: two cylinders on a changeover feeding a tankless geyser and the kitchen stove
- Factories, warehouses and workshops: canteens and process burners where a bulk tank is not yet justified
