Do I need a licensed gas fitter to install an appliance?
Yes, gas appliance installation must be completed by licensed gas fitters to meet legal and safety requirements.
Incorrect installation can create serious risks and may void your warranty. Our team handles appliance installation, testing, and certification so your system is safe and compliant from day one.
What are the signs of a gas leak?
Common signs include:
- Strong gas smell (like rotten eggs)
- Hissing sounds near appliances
- Unusually high gas bills
Some people also notice headaches or nausea in enclosed spaces. Dying plants near gas lines is also a warning sign.
If you suspect a leak, turn off the gas supply (if safe to do so) and contact us immediately for professional gas leak detection. We will send a licensed gas fitter to inspect the system and locate the source properly.
Do you install hot water systems?
Yes. We install, service, replace, and repair all kinds of hot water systems:
Whether you’re switching to a solar-boosted heat pump, replacing an aging gas hot water system, or installing electric instant hot water during a renovation, we can help. All work is completed to Australian Standards. We only use quality parts and appliances, ensuring reliable hot water when you need it.
Can you help me choose between gas hot water vs electric hot water?
Absolutely! Choosing between gas hot water vs electric hot water depends on your usage, property layout, and energy costs.
We assess your demand and the available space before recommending the best system. Because we’re independent, we source and supply the leading brands at wholesale prices. Our advice is based on what’s best for your property and budget.
