What to know locally in George
Guest houses in Wilderness and along York Street often add a gas geyser so hot water keeps up with full rooms, installed with a Certificate of Conformity. Gas fireplaces are asked about in Heatherpark and Eden, where winter evenings are cool and damp. Holiday homes at Herold's Bay commonly use gas braais and patio heaters on the stoep.
George: the supply, the weather and the buildings
George is the main town of the Garden Route, set on a plateau below the Outeniqua mountains, with rain spread through the year, cool winters and mild summers. Homes in Heatherpark, King George Park and the golf estates cook, heat water and warm rooms with gas, and guest houses and restaurants in town and at Wilderness run gas kitchens and patio heaters. LPG comes in by road on the N2 from Mossel Bay and on the N9 and N12, to dealers, refill stations and hardware stores, with delivery to the smallholdings and farms. Damp air rusts cylinders kept on wet ground, so use a raised base, and keep heaters in ventilated rooms.
