How Can LPG Be a Liquid and a Gas?

There’s more happening inside your gas cylinder than most people realize. LPG is stored as a liquid to save space, but when you turn on your appliance, it changes into v***r ready to use. Clever, compact energy working quietly behind the scenes.

Does Your Family Know What to Do in a Gas Emergency?

We teach children where the first-aid box is. We teach them how to phone Mom or Dad. We teach them not to touch a hot stove.

Gas safety can be just as simple.

Everyone in the household should know that if they notice a strong gas smell, they must tell an adult immediately — not try to investigate it themselves.

Adults should know where the cylinder valve is, how to ventilate the area safely and when it’s time to move everyone away and call for professional help.

A five-minute family conversation today could prevent panic later. LPGSA’s guidance is clear: close the supply if it is safe, ventilate the area and have suspected leaks properly checked.

Safe homes are built on simple habits everyone understands.

Little Hands Are Curious Hands

Children explore everything — k***s, switches, cupboards and anything they’ve seen an adult use.

That’s why gas safety should be something the whole family understands.

Keep cylinders secure and away from areas where children play. Teach youngsters that gas valves, hoses and appliance controls are not toys, and that they should always tell an adult if they notice an unusual smell near a gas appliance.

Also keep toys, blankets and other household items well away from heaters and cooking areas.

The goal isn’t to make children scared of gas. It’s the same lesson we teach around electricity or a hot stove:

Know what’s safe to touch — and what belongs to the grown-ups.

Smell Gas? Know What to Do Before You Need To

A suspected gas leak isn’t the time to start Googling what to do.

If you smell gas:

If it is safe, close the cylinder valve.
Open doors and windows to ventilate the area.
Avoid matches, ci******es and other ignition sources.
Don’t operate electrical switches close to the suspected leak.
Move everyone away from the affected area and get professional assistance.

LPGSA also recommends checking valves, regulators and connections with a soapy-water solution when appropriate — bubbles can indicate a leak. Never use a flame to look for one.

Save this post. It’s one of those things every household using gas should know.

Safety first. Always.

School Holidays Start Outdoors 🌞🔥

The school holidays are here, and for some families it’s a long weekend too — the perfect excuse to slow down, get outside and enjoy a little more time together.

Fire up the gas braai, keep lunch simple and let the kids enjoy the fresh air while the adults catch up around the table. Gas makes outdoor cooking quick and easy, so you can spend less time preparing and more time enjoying the day.

Before everyone arrives, check that your cylinder is topped up so the food — and the fun — don’t stop halfway through.

Easy outdoor cooking. More family time. Make the long weekend count.

Most Gas Safety Problems Start With Small Habits

Gas safety doesn’t have to be complicated.

It often comes down to the things we stop noticing: a cylinder placed too close to heat, poor ventilation, an old hose or a connection that someone decided to “quickly fix” themselves.

Good everyday habits include keeping cylinders upright and well ventilated, keeping vents clear and having your gas equipment checked when something doesn’t look or perform the way it normally does.

And when it comes to installations or alterations, don’t take shortcuts — use a registered gas installer.

Safe gas use starts with the little things you do right every day.

Why More South African Kitchens Are Choosing Gas

Morning coffee. School lunches. A quick stir-fry after work. Sunday lunch with half the family squeezed around the table.

Our kitchens work hard.

That’s why gas cooking makes sense for so many households. You get instant heat, responsive flame control and the freedom to keep cooking when an unexpected electricity outage interrupts the day.

Gas also gives households another way to manage their energy use rather than depending completely on electricity for cooking.

Whether you’re gently simmering a stew or turning up the heat for a quick weekday meal, gas gives you control the moment you turn the k**b.

Life doesn’t stop when the power does. Neither should dinner.

Spring Is Calling… Is Your Braai Ready? 🌿🔥

The evenings are getting lighter, the patio is looking inviting again, and suddenly everyone is saying, “We should have a braai this weekend.”

Before the first spring get-together, give your outdoor cooking setup a quick check.

Clean the braai, inspect the burners and connections, make sure your accessories are still in good condition — and most importantly, check how much gas you have left before the guests arrive.

Gas is perfect for relaxed outdoor entertaining because it gives you quick heat and consistent cooking temperatures without spending half the afternoon tending a fire.

A little preparation now means more spontaneous braais, family lunches and long evenings outside as we head towards summer.

Good food. Good company. Gas ready to go.

Not Every Gas Refill Is the Same

When you exchange a gas cylinder, you’re not simply buying more gas — the condition and safety of the cylinder matter too.

A professionally managed exchange cylinder is inspected as part of its circulation process. When collecting your replacement cylinder, also look at the seal covering the valve. LPGSA advises consumers to make sure the seal carries the same branding as the cylinder itself.

Avoid questionable or unauthorised filling operations. LPG cylinders are pressurised equipment and should only be filled through legitimate, compliant channels.

Gasfit is your local Afrox distributor, helping households buy and exchange LPG with confidence.

Don’t Wait Until Dinner Stops Halfway 🔥

There’s nothing quite like the moment the flame disappears halfway through cooking dinner.

The good news? Your gas cylinder usually gives you a few warning signs before it is completely empty.

A simple way to check the level is to pour warm — not boiling — water down the side of the cylinder. After a few seconds, run your hand down the outside. Where the cylinder suddenly feels cooler is roughly where the LPG level sits.

An even easier household habit is to keep a second full cylinder ready as backup. When the first one runs out, you can switch over and organise the replacement without interrupting dinner, hot water or your weekend plans.

Don’t wait for the flame to tell you. Check your gas before you need it.
