I've never had 4 slots in one day, even when I still lived in Centurion.

I take it you have up to 4 slots a day?

I can just imagine, every night at 20:00 you call the family over. Everyone patiently comes and sits in front of the TV, waiting for dad to turn on the weather channel.

Been monitoring gas heater usage more closely now - the smell after longish use isn't like the strong chemical one when you first turn on, closest I can use to describe it is like a mild sour Mieliepap smell. Also, the air begins to feel stale to the nose.

Warning - not a safety bypass option.

Eskom are aware the lights are on and things look like they improving but rest assured things will return back to normal in fast pace aka this afternoon.

We thank you for your patience

Stale to the nose could be that the air is drying out, which heat does do.

Please don't run duct tape down here... Duct tape is and always will be THE NUMBER 1 cheap and affordable fix... These guys just don't know how to use it.

Kind Regards

Representative of Duct Tape.

Only thing better is FLEX TAPE

Put a metal bowl filled with water on top of the heater, the slow evaporation of water helps in keeping moisture levels a bit higher.

Or get a proper air humidifier like this thing :

I used to use a water bowl with electric oil or fan heaters, not nearly as dry now but a good idea for July.

This Jo'burg weather influence theory - my money is on So-we-to being the "culprit" when it's cold, but wet weather doesn't make sense?

Well, we've got the different kind of influences in Jo'burg that could be behind any reality to our theory - rich / political residence areas, industrial ones, anc-voter areas;

Jo'burg weather can vary a lot.
Someone who's got time should watch how some popular influence areas seem to parallel LS changes.

1. Closest to me - Alexandra / Sandton / Midrand (/ Randburg) (/ Houghton) in the North / North East
2. Industrial areas in the West / South East
3. Soweto in the South West

I think huge Soweto gets more free than known, so when it's heater time.....
