Our Professional Gas Cooktop Installation Process

A gas cooktop installation requires precision, safety, and compliance. Our gas fitters follow a strict process from start to finish to guarantee the job is done right.

1️⃣ Removal of Old Cooktop & Replacement With New Gas Cooktop

We focus on getting that seamless, flush fit, so we don't damage your expensive benchtop.

♻️ Removal and Disposal: We safely disconnect and remove your old cooktop or stove, taking care of the disposal completely.

🪚 Benchtop Cutout: Our team precisely cuts the benchtop to make sure the hole fits the new appliance perfectly.

2️⃣ Certified Gas Line Connection & Pressure Setting

This is the most important part of the job; it needs licensed gas fitters to guarantee a safe, working installation.

🔧 Gas Line Connection: Our skilled gas fitters install the new gas line and fittings. This guarantees zero leaks. We also manage the basic wiring for the igniter.

🔥 Performance Testing: We check and adjust the gas pressure at the cooktop. This makes sure the burners heat your food quickly and efficiently.

3️⃣ Gas Safety Certification & Safety Handover

Safety and documentation are the final, critical steps of the process.

👍 Line Integrity Test: We perform mandatory pressure testing on the entire line. This makes sure every pipe and joint is sealed before certification.

📝 Certification: We set the gas pressure for the best flame. We then immediately issue the necessary Gas Safety Certificate to prove your installation meets Victorian Standards.

Do I Need a Qualifed Gas Fitter to Install My New Cooktop?

Yes, it’s mandatory! 

Only a licensed professional with both plumbing and gas fitting certification can legally install a new gas appliance. You cannot legally connect a gas cooktop or stove yourself. 🙅‍♂️

Installing a gas cooktop requires certified expertise for two reasons:

✅ Safety: A licensed gas fitter ensures the gas line connection is perfectly sealed and tests the pressure. This makes sure there are absolutely no gas leaks.

✅ Legal Compliance: Getting the Gas Safety Certificate is mandatory after installation. Without this legal proof, your appliance is non-compliant, and you are exposed to significant liability.

GRH Plumbing’s Gas Performance Guarantee

When our gas fitters install your new cooktop, we guarantee it works perfectly, not just safely. Our focus is on achieving the perfect flame and making sure the job meets all legal standards.

Testing & Setting the Correct Gas Pressure

We thoroughly test and calibrate the gas pressure right at the cooktop to make sure it's set correctly. 

This crucial step makes sure your burners light up correctly and give you a stable, powerful blue flame for maximum efficiency.

Mandatory Flue & Ventilation Checks

Correct ventilation is mandatory to prevent dangerous Carbon Monoxide (CO) issues. 

Our gas fitters check all flues and vents to make sure exhaust fumes go safely outside, which guarantees clean air and legal compliance.

Gas Safety Certificate for Gas Appliance Installation Services

This Gas Safety Certificate is the proof that all gas installation or repair work on your property meets current Australian Standards.

The Gas Safety Certificate is given to you when your gas appliance installation is complete. It shifts liability away from you and is the essential document you need for insurance claims or selling the property.

Commercial Gas Cooktop Installation

Commercial kitchens demand high capacity gas fittings and meticulous cooktop installation to meet high volume usage and strict health regulations. 

Our GRH gas plumbing team specialise in managing these complex commercial installations. 

To guarantee a precise, seamless fit and full safety, we perform pressure testing and make sure the regulatory body signs off on the appliance install quickly.
