Pietermaritzburg: the supply, the weather and the buildings
Pietermaritzburg lies in a bowl where winter mornings are cold and frost is common in the low parts of the city, so gas heaters do a lot of work here from May to August. LPG arrives by road up the N3 from the coast and is sold through dealers, refill stations and hardware stores around the city, with delivery in Hilton and the newer estates. Households in Scottsville, Wembley and Hayfields cook and heat water with gas, schools and student digs ask about safe heaters, and the Midlands farms beyond Howick use gas for brooders and farmhouses. Never run a heater in a closed bedroom, and keep cylinders outside in the open air.
Typical gas delivery requests in the area come from:
- Homeowners: 48 kg cylinders for the geyser and stove swapped at the door without lifting
- Complexes, estates and body corporates: a delivery round serving many units where the body corporate controls gate access
- Restaurants, takeaways and bakeries: restaurants and takeaways on a weekly round so the kitchen never runs dry
