0450 963 633Gas Fitter in Greenslopes, Brisbane
Greenslopes lies along Logan Road south of Coorparoo, with Norman Creek on its western edge. Its most familiar landmark is Greenslopes Private Hospital, which opened as a military hospital in 1942. Up the hillsides sit Queenslanders and interwar bungalows; lower down are post-war brick houses and walk-up unit blocks close to the shops. Reticulated natural gas here comes through Allgas. Cockatoo Plumbing Electrical is based in Toowong, Brisbane, and fits, connects and tests gas appliances in Greenslopes. Phone 0450 963 633.
Hospital precinct and Logan Road
Around the hospital and along Logan Road there are medical suites, cafes, takeaway shops and small businesses that use gas for cooking and hot water. Commercial burners and water heaters need the right pipe size and pressure, and changes to a gas installation in a food business are worth scheduling outside service hours. We look at the existing meter and regulator capacity before adding a new appliance.
Swapping electric for gas, or gas for gas
A common Greenslopes request is replacing a worn electric storage tank with a continuous flow gas unit on an outside wall. That needs a gas line to the new spot, a flue position that keeps the required distance from windows and doors, and sometimes a new power point for the unit’s controls. Replacing an old gas storage heater like for like is simpler, though the connections are still checked and tested.
After heavy rain
Low streets near Norman Creek have gone under in big storms. A meter, regulator or water heater that has sat in floodwater should be inspected and tested before it is used again.
Bottled gas and patios
Where there is no main, LPG cylinders do the job. They want a solid base, clearance from openings and drains, and retesting every 10 years. A bayonet fitting on the deck gives a barbecue or heater a fixed connection instead of a hose to a bottle.
