Cooking, heating and working on gas in Ladysmith
Ladysmith lies on the Klip River below the Drakensberg, where summers are hot and winters bring cold nights and frost, with snow on the passes some years. Households use gas for cooking, geysers and heaters, and the town is a stop for travellers on the N3 and N11 who need camping cylinders refilled. LPG comes in by road from inland and coastal depots to dealers, refill stations and hardware stores, with delivery into Ezakheni and the farms. Factories in the Danskraal and Ezakheni industrial areas run forklifts and welding gas. In summer keep cylinders out of direct sun, and in winter keep heaters in ventilated rooms.
Typical small gas cylinders requests in the area come from:
- Homeowners: a backup cooker top for boiling the kettle when the stove cylinder runs out
- Farms and smallholdings: a cooker top in the bakkie for long days in the camps and at the dam
- Factories, warehouses and workshops: small burners for site work where a 9 kg is too bulky to carry
