Gas Appliances Are Not A Weekend Project
Connecting a gas appliance in Victoria is licensed work, and the reason is simple. A bad connection leaks, and gas collecting in a kitchen or a wall cavity is a fire risk. A loose flare fitting gives no visible warning.
The paperwork bites too. An appliance connected by someone unlicensed has no compliance certificate, which usually voids the manufacturer's warranty and gives your insurer a reason to decline a claim. It shows up when you sell or rent the place out.
The other trap is the existing gas line. Many Melbourne homes have a line sized for a cooktop and a hot water unit. Add a high-output cooktop or a heater and the line can't carry the load, so flames go yellow.

We start with the load. Every appliance has a rated gas input, and we add up what the house already runs before deciding whether the existing line can carry it. If it can't, we upsize the run or put in a dedicated line.
Then the install. Cooktops and ovens get the pipework run to the cabinet, the isolation valve fitted within reach, and the correct clearances to combustible surfaces. Heaters get the flue checked and room ventilation confirmed. BBQ points get a bayonet outlet.
Every job finishes the same way: the line is pressure tested, the appliance commissioned and burner pressure checked, flued appliances tested for spillage, and you get the compliance certificate. We also handle gas hot water changeovers and kitchen plumbing, alongside our other gas plumbing services.

Highly recommend, had an emergency call regarding a blocked drained, Kurt was there within the hour to fix the problem. His pricing is fair and he is a great bloke. 5 stars+++ for eliteflowplumbing
Google - Nagendra Chickmaglore Home Owner
We initially thought this was just a simple blockage that we could fix ourselves, but the team at Elite Plumbing quickly showed us it was more than that. They took the time to properly investigate the issue, explained everything clearly, and walked us through what needed to be done without overcomplicating things. You could tell straight away they really knew what they were doing. What stood out the most was how easy they were to deal with, communication was smooth, they were responsive, and always followed up. No chasing, no confusion, just clear and honest updates. It's not often you come across a team that is both professional and genuinely easy to work with. Really appreciate their help and would highly recommend Elite Plumbing to anyone

Incredible and reliable service! I had an emergency situation with a blocked drain and overflowing sewage in my garden late afternoon on a 43 degree day. I found Kurt's details online, he arrived with all of his equipment within 30 minutes. Worked tirelessly in intense heat to identify the issue (which was actually impacting my neighbours house too, they didn't know because they were away!). Kurt made contact with relevant water and council services and used his years of training and experience to resolve the issue. Friendly, professional, no-nonsense service. 10/10 would recommend!

Gas Appliance Installation FAQs
No. Gas work in Victoria must be done by a licensed gasfitter. Beyond the legal side, an unlicensed connection has no compliance certificate, which typically voids the appliance warranty and gives your insurer grounds to refuse a claim.
Sometimes. It depends on the rated input of the new appliance, what else is already connected, the pipe diameter and how far the run is from the meter. We work that out before quoting and price upsizing or a dedicated line if it's undersized.
A straight swap where the point is already there is usually a couple of hours. A new appliance needing a fresh run of pipe, a flue or an upsized line takes most of a day. Hot water changeovers are typically done in one visit.
Yes, and it's one of the more popular jobs we do. We run the line from a suitable tee, fit a bayonet outlet on the alfresco or deck, and pressure test the whole line. We confirm the meter can carry the extra load before quoting.
It depends on the appliance and how much pipework is involved. A swap at an existing point is a small job. A new run, a flue or an upsized line is more. We give you a fixed price before the work starts.
We install gas appliances across Melbourne and we're based in Glenroy, so Merri-bek and the surrounding northern suburbs are our quickest turnaround. Tell us your suburb and the appliance when you call and we'll book you in.
