FAQs about gas heaters
What is the difference between flued and unflued gas heaters?
Unflued gas heaters are huge freestanding machines that can be plugged into a gas outlet (natural gas or LPG tank). Unflued gas burners use the room’s oxygen to burn fuel and discharge exhaust gas into the room.
Flued gas heaters heat with gas but have a flue to exhaust the exhaust gases. Flued gas heaters come with open or glass fronts and can be used with both natural gas and LPG.
How much is gas heater plumbing?
Gas plumbing is difficult to price. It stands to reason that each plumbing job would cost differently because each job has unique criteria. Before estimating the job cost, a certified gas fitter or qualified plumber would need to know the property type, the condition of the existing gas line, and the type of space heater (ducted gas heater, flued gas heater, or unflued gas heater). It is best to consult our expert plumber and a qualified gas fitter about your gas heater for better estimates.
Can I DIY gas heaters?
It is not recommended to do gas plumbing yourself. In fact, in certain places, doing plumbing without a license is illegal. No valid gas compliance certificate may result in the termination of gas services and future gas installations.
Gas is colourless, odourless, toxic, and combustible. Untrained, inexperienced individuals (or groups) handling gas pipes and installing gas appliances risk property damage, fires, accidents, health hazards, and even death. Let Rowson’s Plumbing Services handle any of your plumbing needs, gas or water.
Why call a professional for your gas heater installation, repair and maintenance?
Using a professional for all gas plumbing and gas appliance needs has three benefits.
First, for safety, let us handle the gas piping. A professional will check for gas leaks and ensure that all gas fittings, pipelines, joints, and appliances work correctly. This involves venting your interior ducted heater properly.
The second benefit is convenience: you won’t have to deal with gas plumbing. A licensed gas fitter has experience and knowledge of the art and can provide high-quality service in a short time for all types of gas heaters.
Finally, a gas compliance certificate. Licensed gas fitters will issue a gas compliance certificate after completing gas heater repairs, installations, or regular servicing. The certificate will show that your gas lines and gas heating appliances are safe and up to code.
What is a compliance certificate?
A gas compliance certificate confirms that a certified plumber or licensed gas fitter installed or serviced the gas. Upon completing any gas installation, gas appliance servicing and repair, or extension, a certificate will be issued. Compliance certificates can only be issued by certified gas fitters and are typically issued within 30 days of confirmation.
