Melbourne’s Most Experienced Gas Heating Service Team

We previously contracted to the Victorian government (DHS) who trusts us to maintain heating systems & all other gas appliances across 5,500+ Department of Human Services properties. That kind of responsibility comes with rigorous safety standards and proven reliability. When your family’s warmth and safety matter, experience counts. We stock over 100 gas appliances and maintain a comprehensive spare parts inventory so that heating emergencies don’t have to wait for parts deliveries in most cases.

Complete 8-Point Safety Inspection with Every Gas Heater Service Melbourne

Professional gas heater service starts with safety, not shortcuts. Our comprehensive 8-point check addresses every critical component:

  • Carbon monoxide testing using professional-grade equipment (because this silent killer gives no warnings)
  • Fan cleaning to remove lint and dust buildup that reduces efficiency
  • Thermistor verification ensuring accurate temperature sensing
  • Combustion pressure assessment within manufacturer specifications
  • Gas supply pressure testing for optimal inlet flow and heating performance
  • Zoning system evaluation verifying wall controller operation
  • Return air inspection maintaining proper airflow throughout your home
  • Supply air temperature measurement confirming consistent heating delivery

Minor faults spotted early save major headaches later. Carbon monoxide leaks develop silently. Worn thermistors lie about temperatures. Clogged fans struggle against accumulated debris. These problems transform from whispers into expensive emergencies without proper attention. Our detailed inspection reveals trouble while it remains manageable, often preventing costly repairs that devastate family budgets. You receive straightforward explanations of our discoveries, plus comprehensive written documentation of your system’s current health. No confusing jargon, just honest professional assessment.

FAQs

We practise transparent pricing across all of our services, safety checks, and routine maintenance. No sneaky add-ons materialising later. Every quote addresses your specific circumstances rather than offering generic estimates that disappoint. Contact us for a personalised assessment of your heating system's requirements.

Comprehensive services typically require up to 1 hour and complex systems might demand longer. We refuse to rush carbon monoxide testing and safety evaluations never get shortchanged despite schedule pressures. Your family's wellbeing trumps our efficiency targets without exception.

Victorian law mandates licensed gas fitters handle internal heating components. There are solid reasons behind this regulation. DIY attempts expose families to carbon monoxide poisoning, gas leaks, even explosions. Manufacturer warranties become void instantly. Professional servicing protects households while preserving valuable equipment investments.

Unusual smells demand immediate attention. Grinding or banging noises signal mechanical problems. black soot accumulation indicates incomplete combustion. Pilot lights frequently extinguishing themselves suggest deeper issues. Unexplained spikes in energy costs usually indicate declining efficiency. What starts as minor irritation transforms quickly into genuine safety concerns requiring immediate professional intervention. Turn off the gas supply immediately. Contact licensed technicians for emergency assessment.
