Which Gas Appliances Do You Install?

Most gas appliances in a home or small business are on the list:

  • Cooktops and ovens, including swaps from electric to gas
  • BBQ points and outdoor kitchen lines, natural gas or LPG
  • Pool and spa heater connections
  • Space heaters and other fixed appliances on the property

Continuous-flow gas hot water is its own job, and the decision between gas, electric and heat pump lives on the hot water hub.

How We Install a Gas Appliance

The method is the same whether it is a cooktop in a mid-century kitchen or a heater out by the pool:

  1. 01

    Check the supply first

    We confirm the gas type and pressure at the meter before anything gets moved, so the appliance you bought is the appliance that runs.

  2. 02

    Run or adapt the line

    New pipe goes in where none exists, and existing pipe gets checked for corrosion and sized for the extra load.

  3. 03

    Fit, test, light

    Once the appliance is connected, the whole line is pressure-tested and we light it with you there to see it working.

What Sits Behind the Price of an Install?

Distance from the meter is the first thing that shapes the price:

  • Where the appliance sits, since a line out to a patio or pool pump takes more pipe than a straight cooktop swap in the kitchen
  • What the existing line is made of, because corroded pipe sometimes has to come out before the new unit goes on
  • LPG versus natural gas, because a street without a main means converting the appliance rather than simply connecting it

Old Fittings Meeting New Appliances

Two housing eras, two starting points

Census figures put 86.9 per cent of local dwellings as separate houses, so BBQ points, outdoor kitchens and pool heater lines are ordinary asks rather than rare ones.

The mid-century stock near the old centre sometimes needs pipe work first

Brick-veneer homes built from the 1960s through the 1980s can still carry original galvanised gas line, and a new cooktop is often the moment that comes to light.

The newer estates are simpler

Growth areas such as McKeachie's Run went in from the 1990s onward with modern pipe and room for outdoor points, so most jobs out there are a clean run from the meter to the appliance.

When We're Not the Right Call

A supply fault at the meter or in the street is reported to the gas network, not booked with us. A suspected leak inside the house is urgent safety work rather than an install, so start with the safety steps on the gas leak detection page.

Gas Appliance Questions

Do you install gas cooktops in older brick-veneer homes in Rutherford?

Yes. Homes from the 1960s to the 1980s may still have their first gas pipe, so we check the line and replace any corroded sections before the new cooktop goes on, then pressure-test everything from meter to cooktop.

Can you convert my BBQ to a natural gas point on the patio?

Usually, yes. We run a line from the meter out to the patio, fit a shut-off tap at the point, and convert or check the BBQ for natural gas. Where no main reaches your street, converting the BBQ to LPG is the other path, and we talk through both.

Does a pool heater gas line need its own shut-off valve?

It does. Every appliance we connect gets an isolation tap within reach, so the heater can be shut off without touching anything else on the property. It is a safety requirement and it makes servicing the unit simpler later.

Do you connect gas appliances in Aberglasslyn and Telarah too?

Yes. Both are part of our regular run: a cooktop swap in Aberglasslyn or a pool heater line in Telarah gets the same up-front quote and the same warranty as a job here.
