Check regulators and hoses with soapy water, never a flame, a few times a year.

Homes in Walmer, Summerstrand and Newton Park cook and heat water with gas, restaurants on the beachfront run gas ranges, and the motor component plants and warehouses in Struandale, Deal Party and Markman use forklift and welding gas. Strong wind can also blow out pilot lights and patio heaters, so place outdoor appliances with care.
