Lindelani is a hilly settlement near Ntuzuma, north-west of Durban, with a mix of formal homes and informal housing on steep ground. Many households cook with LPG, and the gas work is mostly about connecting stoves properly, finding a safe place for the cylinder and keeping it from being stolen.
Steep stands and narrow access mean cylinders often have to be carried some distance, and homes close together raise the stakes if something goes wrong. Tell us your section of Lindelani, how the property is reached and whether the job is for a home, a rental room or a small business.

Ranges are for sanity-checking. Quotes are for deciding.

- Exchange, don't decant. Only use branded cylinders exchanged through proper suppliers. Decanting is illegal and a serious fire risk.
- Fire spreads fast in close housing. A cylinder outside, away from doors and other homes' walls, protects your neighbours as well as you.
- A cage pays for itself. Replacing one stolen cylinder can cost more than a bolted cage.
- Landlords are responsible for rental rooms. If you supply gas to tenants, have it installed and checked by a registered installer.

On an existing point it is usually R1,600 to R3,200. A new cylinder position with a short line and regulator is typically at the lower end of R4,500 to R9,500.
Where should the cylinder go on a steep stand?

How much does a cylinder cage cost?
Usually R1,600 to R3,500, depending on size and how many cylinders it holds.
Can I put gas in my backyard rental rooms?
Yes, if each room has a safe cylinder position and proper ventilation. Have a registered installer set it up and check it.
How do I check that an installer is registered?
Ask for their authorised person registration number issued through LPGSASA and check that it has not expired.
Is it worth getting a certificate for a home gas stove?
For a fixed installation, yes. It confirms the setup is safe and helps with insurance or if the property is sold.
