Potchefstroom notes on cylinders, safety & special gases
Workshops in the Potchefstroom industrial area and farm engineering shops on the Ventersdorp road rent argon mixes, oxygen and acetylene. University laboratories and research groups near the campus order specialist cylinders such as nitrogen through an industrial gas supplier. In student digs around Die Bult, a cracked hose or a loose clamp is a common fault, so test joints with soapy water and replace hard hoses.
Potchefstroom: the supply, the weather and the buildings
Potchefstroom is a university town on the Mooi River, and gas use follows its mix of students, families and farms. Student houses and flats around the campus and in Die Bult often cook on a 2 plate stove and heat a room with a portable heater, while family homes in Baillie Park and Van der Hoff Park run tankless geysers and gas hobs. LPG reaches town by road on the N12 to dealers, refill stations and hardware stores. Farms around Potchefstroom and Ventersdorp use gas in farmhouses and for poultry brooders. Highveld winters are frosty, so landlords and students should know the basics: heaters in a ventilated room, never left on at night, and hoses checked for cracks.
Typical welding and industrial gas requests in the area come from:
- Homeowners: a small owned MIG mix cylinder for gate repairs and hobby welding in the garage
- Complexes, estates and body corporates: maintenance teams with a cutting set for repairs to gates, palisades and railings
- Farms and smallholdings: oxygen, acetylene and MIG gas for repairing implements, trailers and windpumps
