East London notes on cylinders, safety & special gases
Factories and warehouses on the West Bank and in Wilsonia run forklifts on LPG exchange, and engineering shops in Arcadia rent argon mixes, CO2 and oxygen. Salt air near Nahoon and the Esplanade rusts cages and valves, so ask for a coated cage that drains well. Regulators and hoses should be checked with soapy water and replaced when they crack or harden.
Gas in East London
East London is a port city on the Buffalo River, with humid summers, mild winters and salt air that reaches well into the suburbs. LPG comes in by road and through the port area and is sold by dealers, refill stations, hardware stores and delivery services, with routes out to Mdantsane, Qonce and Bhisho. Households in Beacon Bay, Nahoon and Vincent cook and heat water with gas, Quigney restaurants run gas ranges, and the motor and component factories on the West Bank use forklift and welding gas. Coastal humidity rusts cylinder bases and cage hinges, so keep cylinders on a raised, dry base and check the valve area for rust before refilling.

- Homeowners: two rented 48 kg cylinders on a changeover valve for the geyser and the stove
- Factories, warehouses and workshops: rented welding, oxygen and acetylene cylinders billed monthly with each refill
