eMalahleni: the supply, the weather and the buildings
eMalahleni sits in the coal belt of the eastern Highveld, and gas here does two jobs. Engineering shops, mine contractors and boilermakers in Ferrobank and along the N4 use oxygen, acetylene, argon and CO2 every day, usually on cylinders rented from an industrial gas supplier. At home, many families in Witbank, Del Judor and KwaGuqa moved cooking and water heating to LPG during load shedding, and cold winter evenings bring out the three panel heater. LPG comes in by road to dealers, refill stations and hardware stores across town. Winters are cold and dry, so run an indoor heater only in a ventilated room and never overnight. Summer storms are violent, so keep cylinders upright on a firm, level base.

- Homeowners: a new regulator and hose for the stove, heater or braai on a 9 kg
