Gas in Upington
Upington lies on the Orange River at the edge of the Kalahari, one of the hottest towns in the country in summer and far from the main gas depots. The river is lined with vineyards, raisin and table grape farms from Kanoneiland to Kakamas and Keimoes, and farmhouses and staff housing use gas for cooking and hot water. Guest houses and river lodges serve travellers heading to the Kalahari parks. LPG reaches Upington by long road haul to dealers, refill stations and hardware stores, and farms along the river depend on delivery rounds. The heat is the main caution: keep cylinders shaded and upright, never in a closed vehicle, and check hoses that the sun has dried out.
The requests we see from Upington usually come from:
- Farms and smallholdings: poultry brooders and crop dryers with heavy seasonal gas use
- Homeowners: large houses or smallholdings where cylinder changes have become a weekly chore
- Guest houses, lodges and venues: lodges and hotels heating water for many rooms from one tank
