Western Cape: the supply, the weather and the buildings
The Western Cape has a wet, cold winter and a dry, windy summer, and gas covers both. LPG comes through coastal supply points and by road to dealers, refill stations and delivery services from Cape Town to George. Many Cape Town households switched to gas hobs and geysers during load shedding, and restaurants in the city, the Winelands and along the Garden Route cook on 48 kg banks or bulk tanks. Wine farms around Stellenbosch, Paarl and Worcester use gas in kitchens, tasting rooms and patio heaters. Salt air on the Atlantic and False Bay coasts rusts cages and valves. Complexes and estates often limit where cylinders stand, so check with the body corporate first.
The requests we see from Western Cape usually come from:
- Homeowners: a 9 kg for the stove, or 48 kg cylinders outside for a gas geyser, hob and heaters
- Complexes, estates and body corporates: cylinders in cages where the body corporate allows them, with a CoC for every unit
- Restaurants, takeaways and bakeries: 48 kg cylinders on a changeover or a bulk tank for ranges, fryers and pizza ovens
