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.
Cooking, heating and working on 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.
Typical gas installation requests in the area come from:
- Homeowners: a gas hob or geyser piped from a cylinder outside, tested and certified
- Factories, warehouses and workshops: staff canteen kitchens and process burners piped by a registered practitioner
- Restaurants, takeaways and bakeries: commercial ranges, fryers and griddles piped from 48 kg cylinders on a changeover
