The Danger of Opting for Unscrupulous LPG Equipment Suppliers
Consumers across South Africa are becoming increasingly aware of the advantages that liquefied petroleum gas has to offer. This has led to more companies and individuals entering the LPG equipment supply market, offering consumers with substandard and unregulated services. It is unfortunate that there are many organisations and individuals participating in the marketplace with little or no regard for existing standards and parameters regulating the market.
Uncertain electricity supply, along with a rise in electricity costs are two of the biggest factors spurring on the popularity of LPG systems across South Africa. It is also why more and more consumers are looking at affordable and alternative energy sources. This has led to an increase in illegal filling and use of gas installations and cylinders, especially in South Africa’s largest cities.
These flyby night companies and uninformed individuals will purchase LPG equipment from a refinery and then redistribute it. There is a clear lack of investment in their infrastructure to undertake this distribution, such as using their own cylinders. Instead, they use LPG equipment belonging to other companies. They then fill these cylinders, which they brand with their own company’s logo and supply it to unsuspecting consumers.
Partner with Legitimate LPG Equipment Suppliers in South Africa
The gas cylinders are often overfilled since incorrect equipment is used, with unskilled labour at the helm of operations. This practice places the consumer at risk. Overfilled cylinders are hazardous if exposed to excessive heat. It is because of this that industry best practices dictate that cylinders should be filled to 80% of its capacity, as it allows for the expansion of gas in the cylinder.

Smart nose of the hand held explosive detector
Unlike a human nose, the hand held explosive detector cannot be fooled by other smells that might permeate the surrounding environment. A detector is not a nose in the same sense we as people perceive it to work. Human and animal olfactory glands react to the presence of molecules in the air and the brain interprets that reaction as a smell, usually as good or bad. Animals, dogs especially, have more of these olfactory sensors thus the reason why they can smell things that people cannot. But technology has no brain to teach, so how does it know that there are explosives present? It uses a chemical detector that samples all the chemical molecules in the air. (more…)
