Q: What gas work requires a licensed gas fitter in Killcare?

In NSW, all gas fitting work must be carried out by a licensed gas fitter. This includes: connecting a gas appliance (cooktop, oven, heater, BBQ); installing or relocating LPG cylinders; running new gas lines; gas leak detection and repair; and issuing a Certificate of Compliance for gas work. It is illegal to perform any of these tasks without a licence. Never use a plumber who can't provide a Certificate of Compliance — it's required for insurance and home sale purposes.

When You Need a Licensed Gas Fitter in Killcare

You can smell gas

If you smell LPG (a rotten egg or sulphur smell), leave the building immediately, don't operate any electrical switches, and call a licensed gas fitter. Gas leaks on the Bouddi Peninsula are most commonly from corroded LPG regulator connections or cracked flexible hoses on appliances in older Killcare cottages. This is always an emergency — same-day response is available.

Connecting a new gas appliance

Installing or reconnecting any gas appliance — cooktop, oven, heater, LPG hot water system, patio heater, or gas dryer — requires a licensed gas fitter by law in NSW. This applies even when replacing a like-for-like appliance. Only a licensed gas fitter can issue the Certificate of Compliance required after connection.

Installing outdoor gas BBQ or fire feature

Permanent outdoor gas connections for BBQs, fire pits, and patio heaters are popular in Killcare's outdoor entertaining lifestyle. A licensed gas fitter runs an LPG supply line from the cylinder to the outdoor location, installs the connection point, and tests the system. In Killcare's BAL zone, the cylinder and connection location must comply with bushfire-related setback rules.

Certificate of Compliance required

A Certificate of Compliance (CoC) is required for all new gas installations and connections in NSW. It's needed for home sales, insurance claims, and council inspections. If you bought or renovated a Killcare property and don't have a CoC for the gas system, you'll need a licensed gas fitter to inspect, certify, or bring it to compliance before issuing one.

LPG cylinder setup or relocation

Installing, relocating, or upsizing LPG cylinders in Killcare requires a licensed gas fitter to ensure correct placement under AS/NZS 1596. This includes minimum setbacks from windows, doors, and air intakes, appropriate ventilation, and in Killcare's BAL zone, fire-resistant considerations for cylinder positioning near combustible vegetation.
