Cylinders, safety & special gases in Gauteng: local notes
Cylinder theft from yards in Edenvale, Alberton and Boksburg makes lockable cages a common request. Warehouses in Isando, Jet Park and Wadeville run LPG forklifts on an exchange cage, and fabrication shops in Germiston, Benrose and Rosslyn rent argon, CO2 and oxygen from industrial gas suppliers. Party shops in Northcliff and Hatfield hire out helium cylinders. Replace cracked or hard hoses and test fittings with soapy water, never a flame.
Gas in Gauteng
Gauteng gets its LPG by road, from filling plants and depots on the East Rand and around the metros, out to gas dealers, refill stations, hardware stores and delivery bakkies in nearly every suburb. Many households moved their cooking and water heating to gas during load shedding and kept it, so 9 kg and 48 kg cylinders now stand beside townhouses and family homes alike. Highveld winters are cold and dry, which brings out the indoor heaters: use them in a ventilated room and never leave one on overnight. Estates and body corporates often set rules on where cylinders may stand, and theft from open yards is common enough that a lockable, ventilated cage is worth pricing.
Typical gas cylinder rental requests in the area come from:
- Homeowners: two rented 48 kg cylinders on a changeover valve for the geyser and the stove
- Complexes, estates and body corporates: rented cylinders per unit in a shared cage, each owner paying their own rental
- Restaurants, takeaways and bakeries: a bank of rented 48 kg cylinders for the kitchen range, fryers and the hot water
