LPG & gas cylinders in Pretoria: local notes
Students around Hatfield, Sunnyside and Arcadia often buy a 5 kg or 9 kg cylinder and refill it at a station nearby, so check what a station will fill before buying a second hand one. In Waterkloof, Lynnwood and Faerie Glen, houses on a gas geyser usually run two 48 kg cylinders on a changeover valve, delivered and connected. Restaurants in Menlyn and Brooklyn ask for scheduled 48 kg delivery rounds.
Pretoria: the supply, the weather and the buildings
Pretoria's LPG comes by road to depots and dealers around Pretoria West, Rosslyn and Silverton, and from there to refill stations, hardware stores and delivery services across the city. Students in Hatfield and Sunnyside cook on two plate gas cookers with a 5 kg or 9 kg cylinder, while families in Waterkloof, Brooklyn and Lynnwood run gas hobs, braais and tankless geysers. Winter mornings in the east of the city are frosty and gas heaters come out in June, so ventilation matters. Factories in Rosslyn run LPG forklifts. Older houses in Arcadia and Muckleneuk often have a wood fireplace that owners want to convert to gas, which is an installation that needs a CoC.
