At least one person had to be rushed to hospital after several gas cylinders exploded in Eikenhof on Friday morning.
Johannesburg emergency services said nine gas cylinders of different sizes exploded at a storage facility.
Spokesperson Xolile Khumalo said the fire had been extinguished.
The cause of the explosion is not yet known.
"EMS cautions the residents of Johannesburg always to be extra vigilant when using heating devices and other electrical appliances,” said Khumalo.
"One person sustained injuries and was transported to hospital before EMS arrived."
