Gas in Sasolburg
Sasolburg was built around a large petrochemical complex on the northern edge of the Free State, close to the Vaal River and the Vaal Dam. Many residents work in chemical plants, engineering firms and contracting, and the industrial area is busy with fabrication, maintenance and warehousing that use welding gases and LPG forklifts. At home, families in Vaalpark, Sasolburg town and Zamdela cook and heat with gas, and weekend houses around Deneysville and the Vaal Dam run gas braais and geysers. LPG comes in by road to dealers, refill stations and hardware stores, and the Vaal Triangle next door widens the choice. Winters are frosty, so ventilate heaters, and close cylinders at weekend houses when no one is there.
Who asks for gas cages and cylinder locks around Sasolburg, most often first:
- Factories, warehouses and workshops: caged storage for canteen and heating cylinders in a fenced yard
- Homeowners: a double cage on the side wall for the cylinders feeding the geyser and stove
- Gas installers, plumbers and dealers: installers and welders supplying cages with each new gas installation
