Gas Fitting in Coogee

Yes, provided the building has a gas supply and your strata allows gas heating in individual lots. Many of Coogee's older apartment blocks were built with gas connections for cooking and hot water, so extending a gas line to a new bayonet point for a heater is usually straightforward. We check the existing meter capacity, run the line, install the bayonet, pressure-test, and provide the compliance certificate. If strata approval is needed, we can provide the scope and compliance details for the committee.

A brief gas smell when the burner ignites can be normal on older systems, but a persistent smell or anything resembling rotten eggs needs immediate attention. Turn the unit off at the gas isolation valve and call us. In Coogee homes with older gas hot water, the most common causes are a corroded burner assembly (salt air accelerates this), a failing thermocouple, or a flue that's partially blocked. We carry diagnostic equipment and common gas hot water parts in the van, so most issues are diagnosed and fixed in a single visit.
