Gas Hot Water System Installation (Instant, Storage & Solar Gas Units)

Experience reliable hot water and lower energy bills with a gas hot water system installation by Tubeline. Our Gold Coast plumbers are qualified to install all types of gas hot water units, including instantaneous (tankless) systems, traditional storage tank heaters, and even solar-gas hybrid systems. Gas hot water heaters provide instant heating and can be more energy-efficient than electric models, giving you energy savings and consistent hot water on demand.

We’ll help you choose the right size and type of gas hot water system for your household or business. Our installation service covers everything from mounting the unit to connecting gas supply lines and flue (for indoor units), as well as removing your old system if needed. We take care to ensure all gas and water connections are secure and that the heater is commissioned correctly. After installation, we test the system thoroughly – you’ll enjoy reliable, instant hot water for showers, washing, and more, all while potentially saving on running costs.

Thinking of switching from electric to gas hot water? We can convert your existing setup to a gas-powered system, including handling any necessary plumbing and gas pipeline installation. Tubeline Plumbing is licensed for gas hot water installations and follows all safety guidelines, so you can trust that your new hot water system will be installed safely and perform optimally.

LPG & Natural Gas Connections (Residential and Commercial Gas Supply)

Tubeline makes connecting your property to gas simple and safe, whether you have access to natural gas from the street mains or need bottled LPG gas. Our LPG and natural gas installation services in Gold Coast cover all steps of getting gas to your home or business:

• Natural Gas Connections: If your street has a natural gas main, we’ll help you tap into that convenient fuel supply. We can liaise with your energy provider to get a gas meter installed at your property. After the meter is in place, our licensed gas fitters will run new gas lines from the meter throughout your property to supply appliances like your stove, hot water system, or heater. We design the pipeline layout for safety and efficiency, using robust materials and adhering to all compliance standards. The result is a seamless natural gas connection giving you continuous fuel without the need for refills.

• LPG Gas Installations: No mains gas in your area? No problem. We specialise in LPG installations too. We’ll set up an appropriate location for your LPG gas bottles (cylinders) and install the necessary regulators, piping, and fittings to connect the bottles to your home’s appliances. Our team ensures the LPG system is configured with the correct pressure settings and safety valves. We also advise on safe storage of LPG cylinders. LPG is a great option for many Gold Coast residents – especially those in rural or outer suburban areas – offering the same cooking and heating benefits as natural gas. We make sure switching bottles or scheduling refills is straightforward, so you’ll always have gas when you need it.

Whether it’s residential or commercial, our gas connection services cover everything from new gas line installation to converting appliances from LPG to natural gas (or vice versa). We carefully pressure-test all new gas pipelines and joints for leaks, and we won’t leave until your supply is fully verified safe. In the end, you’ll receive a Gas System Compliance Certificate to certify that your new gas connection was installed by a licensed professional to meet all legal requirements.

Gas Heating System Installations (Gas Fireplaces & Space Heaters)

Stay warm in the cooler months with efficient gas heating solutions installed by Tubeline Plumbing and Drainage. We install a variety of gas-powered heating systems for your home or business:

• Gas fireplaces: Enjoy the ambience and comfort of a gas fireplace without the hassle of wood. We install modern gas fireplace units that provide instant warmth at the flick of a switch. Our team handles the flue installation or ventilation requirements and integrates the fireplace safely into your living space. Whether it’s a built-in gas log fireplace in your lounge or an outdoor gas fire pit, we’ll ensure it’s set up correctly and safely.

• Space heaters & wall furnaces: Gas space heaters and wall furnaces can heat your home quickly and cost-effectively. We’ll mount and connect your new gas heater in the optimal location for heat distribution. Proper ventilation is critical for indoor gas heaters, so we make sure all exhaust flues or vents are installed to Australian Standards. Once in place, you’ll have reliable heating that is often cheaper to run than electric heaters and provides cozy warmth on demand.

• Outdoor heaters and patio heating: If you love outdoor entertaining, we can also install patio heaters or ceiling-mounted gas radiant heaters for alfresco areas (similar to the alfresco heater installations done by some Gold Coast experts​). By installing dedicated gas bayonet points (quick-connect outlets) for your portable patio heaters or BBQs, we give you the flexibility to plug in outdoor heating when needed and cap the outlet when not in use.

All gas heating installations are performed by qualified gas fitters with attention to ventilation, safety switches, and clearance requirements. We’ll test-fire your new heater or fireplace and inspect all connections to ensure safe operation. With professionally installed gas heating, you can enjoy a warm, comfortable environment and peace of mind knowing everything has been done safely.

Gas Pipeline & Bayonet Fitting (For New Homes and Renovations)

Planning a renovation or building a new home on the Gold Coast? Tubeline Plumbing and Drainage offers expert gas pipeline installation services to route gas where you need it. Our gas plumbers design and install new gas pipework for kitchens, outdoor BBQ areas, laundry rooms (for gas dryers), or anywhere you plan to use gas-powered appliances. We use durable, approved gas pipes (copper or PEX piping systems) sized correctly for the demand, ensuring sufficient flow and pressure to each appliance.

For new home constructions, we work with your building plans to lay gas lines efficiently before walls are closed up, coordinating with builders to meet project timelines. In renovations or extensions, we carefully retrofit gas pipes, minimising disruption to existing structures. Every gas pipeline installation is pressure-tested and checked for compliance with the latest standards.

We also install gas bayonet fittings – these are special gas outlets (often in walls or floors) that allow you to plug in portable gas appliances like space heaters or indoor BBQ grills. Bayonet points are great for flexibility, as you can attach a heater in winter and remove it in summer, for example. Our team will fit bayonet sockets at convenient locations, complete with shut-off valves, so you can safely connect and disconnect your gas appliance.

All pipeline and bayonet installations are carried out with precision and are fully certified. With Tubeline, you can be confident that your home’s new gas infrastructure is safe, up to code, and built to handle your needs for years to come.

Gas Compliance Certification (Meeting Legal and Safety Standards)

Gas safety is not just our priority – it’s the law. In Queensland, any new gas installation or modification must be tested and certified by a licensed gas fitter. Tubeline Plumbing and Drainage takes compliance seriously, and we include gas compliance certification as part of every installation project.

Here’s what that means for you:

• Certified work: Only a licensed gas fitter can issue a Gas System Compliance Certificate. Our team holds all necessary licences, so you will receive an official certificate for any gas installation we complete. This document certifies that the work meets all regulatory standards and was done by a qualified professional​. It’s an important record for your safety and may be required for home insurance or when selling your property.

• Compliance plate: We also attach a physical compliance plate near each new gas appliance or installation point, as required by QLD regulations​. This metal plate records details of the installation and our licence number, providing a visible assurance that the appliance has been installed to code. Future technicians or inspectors can refer to this plate to see the history of gas work on that appliance.

• Safety and legal peace of mind: With Tubeline’s compliance process, you can rest easy knowing your gas installation adheres to all laws and safety standards. From proper ventilation to correct gas pressure and leak testing, every box is ticked. We stay up-to-date with Australian Standard AS/NZS 5601 (the gas installation code) and any Queensland-specific requirements, so nothing is overlooked.

• Avoid DIY dangers: It’s important to note that unlicensed or DIY gas work is illegal and extremely dangerous. Always use a licensed gas fitting professional for installations – not only for safety but also to ensure your appliance warranties and insurance remain valid​. Tubeline Plumbing and Drainage is happy to handle the entire compliance process for you, giving you total confidence in the safety of your new gas appliance or system.

By providing a gas compliance certificate and plate, we reinforce our commitment to delivering safe, legal, and high-quality gas installations. It’s all part of our service to ensure you get the very best in safety and professionalism.

Benefits of Professional Gas Installations

Wondering if switching to gas or upgrading your current system is worth it? There are numerous benefits to having gas appliances and systems installed by professionals. Here are some key advantages of opting for expertly fitted gas installations in Gold Coast homes and businesses:

Energy Efficiency & Cost Savings

Gas appliances are known for their energy efficiency and can lead to significant cost savings on your utility bills. Natural gas and LPG often cost less per unit of energy than electricity, meaning you pay less for the same amount of heating or cooking. For example, gas hot water systems heat water more quickly and with less energy than many electric models, saving you money in the long run. Gas stoves also deliver heat instantly, without the prolonged warm-up that electric coils need, using fuel only when needed.

Over time, these efficiencies add up to lower operating costs. Many Gold Coast homeowners switch to gas for cheaper energy bills and reduced power consumption. Additionally, modern gas appliances (like high-efficiency condensing hot water heaters) are designed to maximise heat output from every unit of gas. By investing in professional gas installation, you ensure these systems are set up correctly to achieve their promised efficiency, giving you the full benefit of their cost-saving potential. In short, you can save money every month while enjoying high performance from your appliances.

Reliable & Instant Heating for Cooking & Water

One of the greatest perks of gas appliances is their reliability and immediacy. If you love cooking, a gas stove or cooktop provides instant heat and precise temperature control. There’s a reason many chefs prefer gas – you can go from a gentle simmer to a high flame in seconds, and the heat stops the moment you turn it off. This responsiveness makes cooking more enjoyable and helps avoid burnt pots or undercooked meals.

For hot water systems, gas units (especially continuous flow models) deliver steady hot water on demand, so you’re not left shivering waiting for a tank to reheat. Even storage gas heaters typically recover faster than electric ones, meaning more hot water available in a shorter time. And unlike electric systems, gas heating isn’t affected by power outages (important for storm season) – you’ll still have hot water or the ability to cook as long as your gas supply is active.

When our experts install your gas appliances, they make sure everything is tuned and functioning optimally, which boosts reliability. No flickering burners or inconsistent water temperatures – just dependable, instant heat whenever you need it. With gas, you get the confidence that your cooking and heating will work seamlessly day in and day out.

Environmentally Friendly Option Compared to Electricity

Choosing gas over electricity can be an environmentally conscious decision. Natural gas is the cleanest burning fossil fuel, producing fewer greenhouse gas emissions and pollutants than coal-fired electricity generation. By using gas for home heating, hot water, or cooking, you may reduce your carbon footprint compared to relying solely on grid electricity. In an era where awareness of sustainability is growing, many Gold Coast households are turning to gas as a more eco-friendly energy source for certain needs.

Gas appliances often have higher energy efficiency ratings, which means less energy waste overall. For instance, gas water heaters typically lose less energy in the heating process than electric ones, so they require less overall energy to do the same job. Additionally, if you use LPG, you are using a fuel that can be a byproduct of other processes, thereby utilising resources effectively.

It’s true that gas is still a fossil fuel, but the environmental impact is lower per unit of heat produced compared to the predominantly coal-based electricity in some areas. Every bit helps in reducing emissions. To maximise the green benefits, our team ensures your gas installation is done right – no leaks (preventing wastage of gas), and proper setup for efficient combustion. This way, you get the most heat or hot water for the least amount of fuel burned. You can feel good about an energy choice that’s potentially kinder to the environment while still meeting your needs for comfort and convenience.

Safer & More Durable with Expert Installation

Safety is paramount when it comes to gas. By opting for a professional installation with Tubeline, you’re choosing the safest way to enjoy gas appliances. Our licensed gas fitters have the training and experience to install your equipment correctly, greatly reducing the risk of gas leaks, carbon monoxide issues, or malfunctions. We adhere strictly to all safety protocols: using approved materials, installing proper ventilation for gas heaters and indoor appliances, checking for leaks at every joint, and verifying that all connections are secure before we leave. This meticulous approach ensures your new gas system operates safely from day one.

Professional installation also means your appliances and gas pipes will last longer with fewer problems. Improper gas work can lead to early wear and tear – for example, gas pressure that’s not calibrated can stress an appliance, or a shoddy pipe connection might start leaking down the line. With Tubeline’s expert touch, everything is done by the book and to manufacturer guidelines, which protects the longevity of your equipment. Your gas appliances will run as intended, with less likelihood of damage or voided warranties (using unlicensed installers can void warranties and insurance).

Furthermore, we educate you on safe usage and maintenance of your gas system. We’ll show you where your shut-off valves are and how to turn off the gas in an emergency, and we can schedule regular check-ups or gas safety inspections to keep your system in top shape. All of this means a safer home and durable, long-lasting performance from your gas installations. In essence, professional installation isn’t just a one-time service – it’s an investment in the continued safety and durability of your home’s gas infrastructure.

Our Gas Installation Process

At Tubeline Plumbing and Drainage, we follow a proven gas installation process to guarantee quality and safety at every step. From the first phone call to the final certificate, you’ll experience our team’s professionalism and attention to detail. Here’s how our gas installation process works:

Initial Consultation & Site Inspection

Every project begins with understanding your needs. When you contact us for a gas installation in Gold Coast, we’ll start with an initial consultation – either over the phone or on-site. We listen to what you’re looking to achieve: Are you installing a new appliance? Upgrading an old system? Need gas lines fitted in a renovation? With this information, we can provide preliminary advice and schedule a site inspection.

During the site inspection, our licensed gas fitter will visit your property to assess the job in detail. We look at factors like: the best route for gas piping, the placement of appliances, ventilation requirements, and whether you have an existing gas supply or will need a new connection (meter or LPG bottles). We’ll also check the condition of any current gas infrastructure if applicable. This on-site assessment allows us to identify any challenges upfront and figure out exactly what’s required to complete the installation safely and efficiently.

After the inspection, we’ll discuss your options and answer any questions. We aim to give you a clear understanding of what work will be done. You’ll then receive a transparent quote for the recommended solution. This initial step is all about planning and making sure there are no surprises. We want you to feel confident as we move forward to the next phase.

Planning & Compliance Check

Proper planning is crucial for a safe gas installation. Once you approve the quote, our team gets to work on the planning and design phase. We map out the gas pipe layout, determine the materials needed, and schedule our technicians for the job. At this stage, we also double-check compliance requirements. This means ensuring our plan aligns with Australian Standard AS/NZS 5601 (the standard for gas installations) and any local Gold Coast or Queensland regulations.

Key tasks in this phase include:

• Gas supply coordination: If a new natural gas connection is needed, we coordinate with the gas supplier to install a meter at your premises. We’ll handle any necessary paperwork or permits for connecting to the gas network. For LPG users, we plan the location and installation method for your gas cylinders and regulator.

• Designing pipework: We calculate the proper pipe sizing and routing. Our plan minimises bends and length (to maintain good pressure) and avoids any unsafe configurations. We identify where to install shut-off valves, bayonet points, or regulators as needed. Everything is designed to be both efficient and compliant.

• Compliance verification: Before starting physical work, we essentially perform a “compliance check” on paper. If the job is complex, we might consult with regulatory guidelines or obtain an inspection plan. For instance, gas installations in commercial settings may require approval of plans. We ensure all requirements for ventilation, flueing (for gas hot water systems or heaters), clearances around appliances, and safety devices are accounted for in the plan.

• Safety planning: We plan for how we will test the system (such as pressure testing protocols) and prepare the necessary compliance certificate paperwork to be completed after installation. Knowing the compliance steps ahead of time means a smoother process later.

This thorough planning and compliance check phase means that by the time we start the installation, we have a clear roadmap that meets all safety standards. It saves time and prevents costly mistakes, ensuring that once we move to the hands-on work, everything goes according to plan and passes all inspections the first time.

Professional Installation & Testing

With the plan in place, our skilled gas fitters carry out the installation work with precision and care. We arrive on the scheduled day with all the necessary parts and equipment. During the installation phase, you can expect us to:

• Lay and connect gas piping: We install new gas pipes as designed, whether it involves running copper pipes through walls/ceilings or laying poly pipes underground for external lines. Our team secures all pipework properly and uses approved compression fittings or welded joints as appropriate. We also install isolation valves (shut-off valves) at key points, such as before each appliance, to allow for easy maintenance and emergency control.

• Install gas appliances and fixtures: Any appliances you are adding (stove, hot water unit, heater, etc.) will be connected carefully. We hook up the gas supply to the appliance, including attaching regulators or changeover valves for dual-bottle LPG systems if required. Our technicians follow the manufacturer’s installation instructions to the letter, including leveling appliances, sealing connections with gas-rated thread tape, and fitting flue pipes or vents for exhaust where needed.

• Modify and upgrade as needed: If we’re replacing or upgrading old equipment, we safely disconnect and remove the old appliance or piping first. We can cap off unused gas lines or extend existing lines to new locations as part of the installation. Our team ensures that the transition from old to new system is smooth, minimising downtime in your gas service.

• Initial pressure testing: Before we ever introduce gas into the new system, we perform an initial pressure test using inert gas or air. This involves pumping the system up to a high pressure and checking with specialised gauges to see if it holds steady. This step confirms that there are no leaks in the newly assembled pipework. Only once the pipework passes this test do we proceed to connect it to the live gas supply.

After assembling and connecting everything, we turn on the gas supply and do a thorough testing process:

• Leak detection: Using a gas leak detector instrument or a soap solution, we carefully check all joints, connections, and fittings for leaks once the gas is flowing. Safety is non-negotiable – even a tiny leak is addressed immediately by tightening or refitting the connection and re-testing. We don’t consider the job done until zero leaks are confirmed throughout the system.

• Appliance testing: Next, we ignite or start each gas appliance that has been installed to ensure it’s operating correctly. For a stove, we ignite each burner and the oven, checking that the flames are strong and blue (indicating proper combustion). For a hot water system, we light the pilot (if applicable) or trigger the burner and test the water temperature and flow. For heaters, we light them and observe that safety features like flame failure devices are working. Any necessary adjustments (e.g., to burner air mix or thermostat settings) are made at this stage to optimise performance.

• Operational checks: We also verify that all control knobs, valves, and regulators function smoothly. If your installation includes something like a gas changeover valve (for dual LPG cylinders) or a gas booster with solar hot water, we test those specific functionalities as well. The goal is to leave your gas system fully operational and tuned for best performance.

Our professional installation & testing phase is comprehensive. It not only guarantees safety, but also ensures that you get the best efficiency and use from your new gas installation right away. We take pride in our tidy work – you’ll find that we treat your property with respect, clean up after ourselves, and cause minimal disruption. Once this phase is done, the exciting part comes: you get to start using your new gas appliance or system, and we move to final verification and documentation.

Final Safety Inspection & Certification

Before we sign off on the project, we conduct a final safety inspection together with you. This is a thorough walk-through and check to make sure everything meets our high standards (and yours!). In this stage, we:

• Double-check all components: Even though we’ve tested already, we go over each part of the installation one more time. We inspect the pipe routes, ensure clamps and brackets are secure, confirm that any protective measures (like sleeving for pipes through walls) are in place, and verify that no tools or materials are left behind. We also test any relevant smoke alarms or carbon monoxide detectors on site if needed, to ensure they’re working and appropriately placed (for example, near indoor gas heaters).

• Client demonstration: We take time to show you the work that’s been done and demonstrate how to operate any new appliances or systems. For instance, we’ll show you how to relight a gas hot water system or how to switch between LPG bottles if you have a dual set. We point out key features like shut-off valves and explain any safety precautions. This is your chance to ask questions and get comfortable with your new gas setup.

• Gas Compliance Certificate issuance: With the final inspection confirming that everything is safe and functional, we proceed to fill out the Gas System Compliance Certificate. This official document includes details of the work done, our license number, and a declaration that the installation complies with all regulations. We provide you with the original copy of this certificate (or email you an e-certificate) immediately upon completion, as required by law​. This is an important record – keep it in a safe place with your home documents.

• Attach compliance plate: We also affix the compliance plate close to the newly installed appliance or at the gas meter (for whole system work). The plate is like a permanent tag that shows when the installation was done and by whom. It’s typically a small metal tag we screw into place where it’s visible for future reference. If you ever have additional gas work in the future, the next technician will update or add to this plate rather than adding multiple plates.

• Final paperwork and sign-off: We’ll give you any additional documentation, such as manuals for new appliances or maintenance tips. We make sure you’re completely satisfied with the job. Finally, we pack up our gear and leave your site as neat as we found it.

By the end of our process, you’ll have a safely operating gas system and all necessary certifications in hand. Our meticulous final inspection and certification steps ensure full compliance and your peace of mind. You can enjoy your new gas installation knowing it was done correctly, legally, and with your safety as the top priority.

After-service support: Our commitment doesn’t end when we drive away. Tubeline Plumbing and Drainage stands by our work – if you have any questions or in the unlikely event you encounter an issue after installation, we’re just a phone call away. We also offer maintenance services and future inspections to keep your gas system in perfect condition. With our team, you get long-term support for all your gas fitting needs.

Whether it’s connecting a new built-in oven or a freestanding cooker, adding a gas bayonet for a portable heater, or installing a poolside BBQ gas point, we have the expertise to set it up safely. If it runs on gas, chances are we install it! We also handle all the necessary gas pipeline work that comes with the installation. After fitting the appliance, we thoroughly test it to ensure everything is working perfectly and safely before we consider the job done.

Q: Do I need a gas compliance certificate for new gas installations?

A: Yes, absolutely. In Queensland, any time a new gas installation is completed (or even if significant work is done on an existing system), the licensed gas fitter must issue a Gas System Compliance Certificate​

. This certificate is a legal requirement and it confirms that the installation complies with all safety standards and regulations. Along with the certificate, a compliance plate must be attached near the installation as a permanent record. This isn’t optional – it’s mandated by law to ensure gas work is done safely by qualified people. When you use Tubeline Plumbing and Drainage for your gas installation, we take care of this for you. We are licensed to issue these certificates, and we will provide you with the documentation immediately upon finishing the job. The certificate gives you peace of mind and is important for insurance and warranty purposes. Always make sure any gas fitter you hire will provide a compliance certificate; if they don’t or can’t, that’s a red flag that they may not be properly licensed. With Tubeline, you’re in safe hands – all our work is certified and above board.

Q: Is natural gas better than LPG for my home?

A: Both natural gas and LPG (Liquefied Petroleum Gas) have their advantages, and the better choice depends on your circumstances. Natural gas (mains gas) is great if your street has a pipeline network – once connected, you have a continuous supply and never need to worry about ordering refills. It’s often a bit cheaper per megajoule than LPG and is very convenient. Many homeowners prefer natural gas because it’s “always on” and you just pay your quarterly gas bill for what you use. LPG, on the other hand, is delivered in bottles (cylinders). It’s typically used in areas where mains gas isn’t available. LPG has the advantage of high energy content and is an excellent fuel if you’re not a high-volume user of gas. The downside is you need to monitor your usage and schedule new bottle deliveries or swaps, and the cost per unit can be slightly higher than mains gas for larger consumption. However, for homes that only use gas for a BBQ and maybe a single stove, LPG’s yearly supply charges might actually be less than the service fees for a mains connection. In terms of performance, your appliances will work just as well on either fuel, as long as they are fitted with the correct jets/injectors (we ensure any appliance we install is set up for the type of gas you have). We’re happy to advise you based on your location and usage: if natural gas is available, we can help you connect to it; if not, LPG is a perfectly good alternative and we can set up a safe, efficient LPG system for you. In summary, neither is universally “better” – it’s about what’s available and most cost-effective for your needs. Tubeline is experienced with both natural gas and LPG installations, so you’ll get a solution tailored to your situation.

Q: What should I do if I smell gas or suspect a leak?

A: If you smell gas inside or outside your home, or notice signs of a gas leak (such as a rotten egg smell, hissing sound, or dead patches of grass near a buried gas line), you should act immediately. Here’s what to do:

1. Turn off the gas supply. If you know where your gas meter is (for natural gas), turn the shut-off valve to cut the supply. For LPG, turn off the valves on the top of your gas bottles. This will stop more gas from escaping.

2. Open windows and doors. Good ventilation can disperse the gas. If the leak is indoors, get fresh air flowing through the area. If it’s outdoors, keep clear of the area and ensure others stay away.

3. Avoid flames or sparks. Do not use any open flames (no candles, lighters, or matches) and don’t operate electrical switches or appliances, as they could create a spark. It’s best to evacuate the immediate area until it’s safe.

4. Call a professional gas fitter immediately. Once you’re at a safe distance, call Tubeline Plumbing and Drainage (or an emergency gas service). We have an emergency response team for such situations. We will come out as soon as possible to locate and repair the leak. Do not try to fix a gas leak yourself. Our technicians use proper detection equipment to pinpoint the issue and will repair or isolate the leaking section safely.

5. Call emergency services if needed. If the smell of gas is very strong, or you suspect a major leak that could pose an immediate danger (especially if you can’t turn the gas off), it’s wise to also call 000 so that fire authorities are aware of the situation. They might come to stand by as we fix the problem, for everyone’s safety.

By following these steps, you’ll minimise the risk of fire or explosion from a gas leak. Once we arrive, we’ll handle the rest – including making sure the area is safe, fixing the leak, and restoring your gas service when it’s safe to do so. After repairs, we also conduct thorough tests and provide a compliance certificate if any parts of the system were replaced or newly installed. Safety is our number one priority, so never hesitate to call if you suspect a gas leak. It’s always better to be safe and let professionals handle it.

Q: How much does a gas installation typically cost?

A: The cost of a gas installation can vary widely depending on the scope of work. For simple jobs – for example, connecting a freestanding gas stove where gas supply is already in place – you might be looking at a few hundred dollars in labour. For more complex projects, such as running new gas lines through a house or installing a gas hot water system from scratch, the cost will be higher. Factors that affect the cost include: the length and complexity of gas piping required, the number of appliances or outlets being installed, any difficult access work (like going under a slab or through walls), and whether you need a new gas connection/meter or LPG tank setup. In Australia, many standard residential gas installations (like installing a new gas hot water system or several kitchen appliances with some piping) tend to range roughly between $1,200 and $5,000 in total cost, including both parts and labour. Simpler jobs will be on the lower end, while extensive projects (or commercial installations) could be on the higher end or above.

Remember that with gas work, paying for a licensed professional is crucial – it’s not just about cost, but about doing it safely and correctly.

There are often a few options we can consider (for instance, routing pipes a different way or scheduling installations together to save time) that can help manage costs. Feel free to contact us for an accurate estimate tailored to your job – there’s no obligation, and we’re happy to advise.

Q: Do you offer gas safety inspections or maintenance services?

A: Yes, we do. Beyond installations, Tubeline Plumbing and Drainage provides gas safety inspections and ongoing maintenance for your gas systems and appliances. It’s generally a good idea to have your gas appliances and lines checked periodically even if everything seems fine – this can catch potential issues early and ensure continued safe operation. We recommend having a qualified gas fitter inspect your system every couple of years or at least every 2-3 years, especially for older appliances. During a gas safety inspection, we will:

– Check all gas connections, joints, and hoses for any signs of leaks or wear.

– Inspect appliances (stoves, heaters, hot water systems) to make sure burners are clean and combustion is proper (flames burning blue, no soot buildup).

– Test safety devices like thermocouples, flame failure shut-offs, and pressure relief valves.

– Ensure adequate ventilation and flueing for any indoor gas appliances.

– Verify the integrity of your gas regulator (for LPG systems) and check the condition of gas bottles if applicable.

– Issue a report or compliance notice if everything is in order, or recommend repairs if we find any faults.

Regular maintenance, such as servicing your gas hot water unit or cleaning your gas heater, can extend the life of the appliance and keep it running efficiently. For example, manufacturers often suggest servicing gas heaters annually or biennially. We can perform these services and replace consumable parts (like seals or filters) as needed.

If you’ve just moved into a new home and are unsure about the state of the gas system, or if your appliances are older, a safety inspection is a smart move. Tubeline’s maintenance services will help ensure your gas infrastructure remains safe year after year. And of course, if you ever encounter a problem outside of scheduled inspections – be it a minor fault or something urgent – we’re just a phone call away to assist. Keeping you safe and your appliances running smoothly is all part of our comprehensive gas plumbing service.
