What to know locally in Pietermaritzburg
Older Victorian houses in the city centre and Clarendon often have high ceilings and draughty rooms, so ask about a flued gas fireplace rather than an indoor heater for long evenings. Estates in Hilton and Hayfields usually set where geysers and cylinders may stand, and want the Certificate of Conformity on file. Gas hobs are a common upgrade in Montrose and Chase Valley kitchens.
Cooking, heating and working on gas in Pietermaritzburg
Pietermaritzburg lies in a bowl where winter mornings are cold and frost is common in the low parts of the city, so gas heaters do a lot of work here from May to August. LPG arrives by road up the N3 from the coast and is sold through dealers, refill stations and hardware stores around the city, with delivery in Hilton and the newer estates. Households in Scottsville, Wembley and Hayfields cook and heat water with gas, schools and student digs ask about safe heaters, and the Midlands farms beyond Howick use gas for brooders and farmhouses. Never run a heater in a closed bedroom, and keep cylinders outside in the open air.
Typical gas patio heaters requests in the area come from:
- Homeowners: a mushroom heater on the stoep for winter lunches and evening braais
- Complexes, estates and body corporates: patio heaters on garden units and balconies where the rules allow gas
- Restaurants, takeaways and bakeries: restaurant terraces and coffee shop decks heated through the winter
