East London notes on gas appliances & installation
Gas geysers are a common install in Bonnie Doon and Baysville, with the installer fixing the flue on an outside wall and issuing a Certificate of Conformity. Gonubie and Beacon Bay houses with sea views often ask for built-in gas braais on the stoep, which count as installations. Restaurants in Quigney and along the Esplanade run gas ranges on banks of 48 kg cylinders.
East London: the supply, the weather and the buildings
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.
Typical gas fireplaces requests in the area come from:
- Homeowners: a gas log set replacing wood in the lounge fireplace of a family home
- Factories, warehouses and workshops: reception areas and boardrooms with a built in gas fire
- Restaurants, takeaways and bakeries: a gas fireplace warming a restaurant dining room on winter evenings
