Domestic
Whether you're heating, cooling, drying or lighting your home, natural gas performs more effectively, efficiently and economically than most other energy sources. Installing natural gas means you don't have to worry about adding things to do to an already busy schedule - it's convenience and comfort as you've never experienced before - not to mention more environmentally-friendly.
Natural gas means you can live a low carbon, less environmentally-impactful lifestyle, hassle-free.

HOW TO GET CONNECTED
- Please contact our Customer Service department on 011 - 356 5000 or e-mail us at cservice@egoligas.co.za
- You need to supply us with your address in order for us to verify whether you are on our gas network.
- We will send an Egoli Gas staff member to your home to verify
where our pipeline runs and to point out where your
connection point will be. - You then need to employ a qualified gas fitter to install your
internal piping to the connection point at the
boundary of your property. The gas fitter will issue you with a certificate of compliance. - Once we receive a completed application, with a copy of your
ID, proof of payment of the connection fee and
deposit as well as the compliance certificate, a meter will be installed and your gas service connected.
Please note - To be successfully connected can
take up to 8 weeks due to way leave, open trench way leaves and
other council
applications which Egoli Gas applies for.
