Which appliances can go on your gas line?
If it burns natural gas indoors or out, a licensed fitter can connect it:
- Cooktops and ovens, including a change from electric to gas
- Wall heaters with a flue, plus bayonet outlets for plug-in heaters
- Barbecue points on a deck or patio
- Heaters for a pool or spa
- Gas hot water units, with sizing covered under hot water options
Every one is lit and checked before we leave.
Can the old line carry a new appliance?
That is the first question on any install here. Some homes in the village were put on gas long after they were built, and the pipe behind the stove may be older than anything connected to it.
- The gauge test shows whether the existing pipe loses pressure, and no appliance goes on a line that does.
- The shut-off valve is worked and checked, since an old valve can seize or seep.
- Where the pipe goes through a wall, the fitter looks for a protective sleeve, which older conversions can lack.
- The line's diameter is checked against the total load, since a pool heater needs many times the gas of a cooktop.
A failed check becomes a line on the quote, fixed before the new appliance is fitted.
How We Fit a Gas Appliance
- 01
Check the supply
The gas is shut off, a gauge goes on, and the connection point is looked over before the old cooktop or heater is removed.
- 02
Set and connect
The appliance is positioned and flued to the maker's instructions, with a new valve or regulator where the old one is worn.
- 03
Light and hand over
Each burner is lit and adjusted, the joints are leak-tested, and the compliance paperwork is completed.
What drives the price of an install?
We provide up-front, honest quotes that will always match the final price, should you decide to go ahead.
- The type of appliance As a flued heater needing a new hole in the wall is more work than a cooktop dropping into the same benchtop gap.
- How far it sits from the meter Since a kitchen beside the meter takes a short pipe and a pool heater at the back fence takes a long one.
- Repairs to the old pipe Where a joint fails its test and must be fixed before anything is added.
- Flue work If an existing flue cannot be reused and a new one goes through the wall or roof.

What Customers Say
Had a gas hot water system installed at my house. Really happy with the install.
When We're Not the Right Call
A new oven or heater that needs a dedicated power circuit gets wired by an electrician, not a gas fitter. And if you can smell gas, this is no longer an install: leave the house, avoid switches and see gas leak detection.
Gas Appliance Installation FAQs
Do you install gas cooktops in Abermain homes with old lines?
Yes. Before the new cooktop is connected, the fitter checks that the old pipe holds pressure, looks at the shut-off valve, and sees how the pipe passes through the wall behind the stove. Anything worn is replaced first, so the cooktop goes onto a sound supply.
Can you run a new gas point out to a BBQ or pool heater?
Yes. The pipe is sized for the burner rating and run from the meter, then tested before connection. A bayonet on the back deck needs only a few metres, while a pool heater down the yard can need a trench, and the quote is built on that distance.
Who do you call for a gas appliance, a plumber or an electrician?
Call a licensed gas fitter for the gas side of any cooktop, oven, heater or BBQ. If the appliance also needs a new power point, for example a fan-forced heater or an oven with electric ignition, an electrician wires that part, and the quote points it out.
Does a new appliance need a compliance certificate?
Yes. Once the appliance is lit and tested, the fitter lodges the gas compliance paperwork for the job and you keep a copy. A landlord or seller can show it as the record that licensed work was done.
