In student digs around Die Bult, a cracked hose or a loose clamp is a common fault, so test joints with soapy water and replace hard hoses.
Potchefstroom: the supply, the weather and the buildings
Potchefstroom is a university town on the Mooi River, and gas use follows its mix of students, families and farms. Student houses and flats around the campus and in Die Bult often cook on a 2 plate stove and heat a room with a portable heater, while family homes in Baillie Park and Van der Hoff Park run tankless geysers and gas hobs. LPG reaches town by road on the N12 to dealers, refill stations and hardware stores. Farms around Potchefstroom and Ventersdorp use gas in farmhouses and for poultry brooders. Highveld winters are frosty, so landlords and students should know the basics: heaters in a ventilated room, never left on at night, and hoses checked for cracks.
