What to know locally in Richards Bay
Hot summers in Veldenvlei and Brackenham make gas hobs popular, as they add less heat to the kitchen than long oven cooking. Geysers in Meerensee often go on an outside wall facing away from the sea breeze, with the installer setting the flue and issuing a Certificate of Conformity. Restaurants at the Waterfront and in the CBD commonly run gas ranges on banks of 48 kg cylinders.
Gas in Richards Bay
Richards Bay is a port and heavy industry town, and much of its gas goes to the smelters, bulk terminals, workshops and contractors around Alton and the harbour. Forklift cylinders, welding gas and cutting gas are in steady demand from engineering shops and shutdown crews. LPG reaches the town by road along the N2 and through the port area, and is sold by dealers, refill stations and hardware stores, with delivery into Meerensee, Arboretum and Birdswood. Homes cook and heat water with gas, and holiday houses near the lagoon run braais and patio heaters. The hot, humid coast is hard on steel: cylinders and cages rust, so keep them shaded and raised.
Who asks for gas patio heaters around Richards Bay, most often first:
- Factories, warehouses and workshops: outdoor smoking and break areas warmed on cold mornings
