Cooking, heating and working on gas in Free State
The Free State is farm country with some of the coldest winters on the Highveld, and gas use follows both. LPG comes in by road along the N1 and N3 and from the industrial area near Sasolburg, to dealers and refill stations in Bloemfontein, Welkom, Kroonstad, Bethlehem and Harrismith. Farmhouses heat rooms and water with gas, poultry houses use brooders, and grain farms may dry crops with gas burners. In the eastern highlands around Clarens and Ficksburg, guest houses and restaurants want heaters, fireplaces and patio heaters. Frost and snow on the Maluti side make indoor heaters common, so ventilate the room. Farm deliveries cover long distances, so plan ahead before the cold sets in.
The requests we see from Free State usually come from:
- Farms and smallholdings: the farm cottage stove and a heater in the workers' kitchen
- Homeowners: a stove, a three panel heater or the braai run off one cylinder at a time
- Guest houses, lodges and venues: self catering cottages with a two plate hob and a heater for winter nights
