0450 963 633Gas Fitter in New Farm, Brisbane
New Farm is north of the river, so it falls within the natural gas network operated by AGN, and gas mains run through much of the peninsula. Not every property is connected, though: some older cottages and flats rely on LPG cylinders, and plenty of courtyards have a barbecue running off a bottle. Cockatoo Plumbing Electrical is based in Toowong, Brisbane, and carries out licensed gas fitting in New Farm homes, units and restaurants. Call 0450 963 633.
Renovating a character kitchen
When a New Farm Queenslander gets a new kitchen, the cooktop often moves to an island bench or the opposite wall. That means a new gas line, usually run under the floor, sized for the appliances it will feed and fitted with an isolation valve you can reach. If the house also has a gas hot water unit or heater, we check that the meter and existing pipework can supply everything at once.
Blocks of flats
Some older New Farm blocks have a single gas meter for the building, with shared pipework feeding each flat or a common hot water plant. Replacing a cooktop in one unit is simple, but altering shared pipework needs the body corporate’s consent. Old galvanised gas pipe in these buildings is worth checking whenever an appliance is changed.
Restaurants on Brunswick Street and Merthyr Road
Commercial kitchens along New Farm’s dining strips depend on gas for burners, ovens and hot water. When equipment is added, a supply adequacy check confirms the meter and pipework can carry the extra load, and the network operator must be told before a large increase in consumption. We connect, test and commission each appliance and fit isolation valves within easy reach of kitchen staff.
