What we do in Northgate

Many post-war homes in Northgate were never connected to gas, so LPG cylinders are a common way to add a cooktop or water heater. Cylinders are set out with the required clearances from windows, openings and ignition sources, and fitted with a suitable regulator. If the street is reticulated, natural gas may suit the house better than cylinders, and we explain both options.

Older Queenslanders in Northgate may have gas pipework that has been extended several times as stoves and water heaters changed. Existing pipework is pressure tested before a new cooktop or water heater is connected, and redundant lines are capped properly.

Questions we hear in Northgate

Can you add a BBQ point at my Northgate home?

Yes. A bayonet point on the deck or alfresco lets you connect a BBQ or patio heater without a separate bottle.

Will I receive a compliance certificate?

Yes. Once the licensed gas fitting work is completed and tested, you receive the required compliance certificate.

Do you work with natural gas and LPG in Northgate?

Yes. Some Northgate streets have natural gas while other homes use LPG cylinders, and we install and connect appliances on both.

Is a gas smell in Northgate something to act on straight away?

Yes. Turn the supply off at the meter or cylinder, ventilate, avoid sparks and call your gas supplier. We can then find and fix the leak.
