Homes in Makhanda and Queenstown, and farmhouses near Graaff-Reinet and Somerset East, fit gas heaters and fireplaces for frosty winters, with ventilation checked. In Gqeberha and East London, tankless geysers and hobs are installed by registered installers who issue a CoC.

Eastern Cape: the supply, the weather and the buildings
The Eastern Cape runs from a windy, salty coastline to cold Karoo plateaus and the mountains of the former Transkei. LPG arrives through the ports and by road to dealers and refill stations in Gqeberha, East London, Mthatha and the smaller towns. Motor component factories around Gqeberha and East London use LPG forklifts and welding gas, while holiday towns like Jeffreys Bay and Port Alfred see gas cooking and braais in season. Inland, Graaff-Reinet, Cradock and Queenstown get hard frost, so heaters and fireplaces are common. Sheep and dairy farms rely on scheduled delivery. Coastal wind and salt rust cylinders and cages, so check valves and collars before every refill.
The requests we see from Eastern Cape usually 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
- Farms and smallholdings: farmhouse living rooms converted from wood to gas in cold districts
