Tips for Gasfitting
Always use a licensed gasfitter when having a new appliance installed
When installing a new appliance, always ask the gasfitter whether they have checked that your gas meter and gas piping system are big enough for the new appliance.
Ask to see the gasfitter’s calculations. Too many times we attend homes where the gas pipe and gas meter are too small. This can be very, very dangerous as it can lead to carbon monoxide poisoning or gas explosions.
Ask the gasfitter whether they’ve checked that your gas meter and piping system are big enough for your new appliance.
Consider a high-efficiency gas hot water system when choosing a hot water system, as it’s better for the environment. A 5-star gas hot water system has a lower carbon footprint than most electric boosted solar hot water systems. These come in both storage and continuous flow models.
