Gas Cooking by Gas Fitters Wellington
We supply and install upright cookers and gas cook tops or hobs. We install commercial and domestic varieties including gas deep fryers, barbecues, grillers and salamanders, gas ovens, and hot plates. We also convert gas cooking equipment to LPG or Natural Gas. We eliminate gas daily charges by installing gas bottles using LPG also.
We supply and install gas water heating, storage, and continuous flow. Gas water heating is better than electric, it can produce large quantity endlessly. The water heaters are small in size which allows using that space for other purposes.
Gas Heating
Our expert gas fitters install panel heaters, gas fires, flame effect fire systems, and wall furnaces. We also install Rinnai Energy Saver, a popular gas heater by Rinnai. It is cost effective and very efficient. Additionally, our gas fitters can install and repair all kinds of gas heaters in Wellington.
Gas Central Heating by Certified Gas Fitters Wellington
We undertake central heating repairs, replacements, and new installations. We can take your old unit and replace ducting with more efficient ducting with less heat loss. New furnaces are more energy efficient and have lower running costs.
A standard installation will require a new gas line installed under the building or gas meter and run it to the new location. A return air duct will be taken to the hallway and new ducting taken from the central heating furnace to the new outlets, usually situated near windows and outside walls. The grills are 300mm x 100mm and have a closing damper on each one.
We install a thermostat in the hall and connect it to the furnace.
Gas furnaces can be fuelled by different types of fuel including LPG and diesel. But we recommend natural gas as it is cheaper fuel and is environment-friendly.
Buildings with central heating should be insulated in the ceiling but also in the walls and under the floor. The windows should be double glazed.
Gas Service Calls and Installations
11 General rules for when things deemed to be unsafe
(1) A distribution system, a gas installation, fitting, or a gas appliance is deemed to be unsafe if measures are not in place that—
(a) ensure a release of gas is detectable or ignition of release is prevented unless such a release is required to establish or sustain combustion; and
(b) ensure gas is not released in an uncontrolled manner; and
(c) ensure that any oxygen and gas is prevented from mixing in a pipe unless the mixture is outside the flammability limits; and
(d) ensure persons are not exposed to carbon monoxide and other harmful products of combustion of gas; and
(e) ensure persons and property are not exposed to excessive forces; and
(f) ensure that the failure of any control or safety device does not expose the downstream equipment to excessive pressure above the rated pressure of any distribution system and equipment downstream of that control or safety device; and
(g) enable the effective isolation and shut-off of the gas supply, including during an emergency.
(2) A distribution system, a gas installation, fitting, or a gas appliance is also deemed to be unsafe if—
(a) the safety-related characteristics of any fittings are impaired so that the safety function is not served; or
(b) any of the following are inadequate, incompatible, or unreliable:
(i) a pipe:
(ii) a joint between pipes:
(iii) a joint between pipes and fittings; or
(ba) the fittings in any distribution system, gas installation, or gas appliance—
(i) have a gas leakage (other than a minute leakage that is permissible under relevant testing procedures); or
(ii) are capable of being operated in a manner that is hazardous when the fittings are exposed to any reasonably foreseeable torques, pressures, or chemical or physical conditions; or
(c) the fittings of any gas installation, distribution system, or gas measurement system are exposed to a pressure exceeding their maximum rated pressure, including as a result of the failure of any control or safety device; or
(d) a pipe or a fitting (whether above or below ground) is inadequately protected against the risk of damage or corrosion; or
(e) a pipe or a fitting is subject to forces beyond its design criteria; or
(f) there is insufficient space, access, lighting, ventilation, or facilities to operate, maintain, test, and inspect any fittings required to be operated, maintained, tested, or inspected; or
(g) any fittings that cause or are subject to high temperatures are placed in a position, or are unprotected, so as to create a risk of ignition of flammable materials or a risk of injury to persons or damage to property.
12 Additional rules for when gas installations deemed to be unsafe
An installation is deemed to be unsafe if—
(a) leakage of gas within the installation is outside the tolerance of a soundness test or has the potential to result in a concentration of gas in air that is in excess of one-fifth of the lower explosive limit; or
(b) a pipe containing gas or intended to contain gas is not capped or securely closed to prevent leakage or flow of gas (except where ending in a burner or relief valve); or
(c) the safety controls are inoperative or the safety controls fail; or
(d) the flue associated with any gas appliance is incorrectly installed; or
(e) installed permanent ventilation required for safe operation has been closed off or is absent.
