Gas smell inside the home Hire a pro

A gas smell is an emergency — do not operate any electrical switches. Leave the building immediately, leaving doors open as you go. Once outside, call 000 and your gas network operator's emergency line (Jemena, Evoenergy, etc.). Do not re-enter until the network operator and a licensed gas fitter have confirmed it is safe.

Gas hot water or heater pilot light won't stay lit Hire a pro

If the pilot light repeatedly fails to stay lit after correct relighting procedure, the thermocouple or thermopile is faulty. Thermocouple replacement requires a licensed gas fitter — it involves working on gas pipework inside the appliance, which requires a gas-fitting licence in every Australian state.

Adding a gas point for an outdoor kitchen or BBQ Hire a pro

Installing a new gas outlet point, extending a gas line or connecting an outdoor kitchen to the gas supply requires a licensed gas fitter with a current gas-fitting licence (separate from the plumbing licence in most states). After installation, the fitter must pressure-test the pipework and issue a Certificate of Compliance. Never use flexible LPG hose connections in lieu of a permanent fixed gas line indoors.
