When it comes to installing a gas cooktop, you’d need to employ a licensed gas fitter to ensure the installation complies with local regulations and safety standards.

Yes, in Sydney and throughout Australia, it’s legally required that any gas appliance installations, including gas cooktops, be performed by a licensed gasfitter or someone who has been trained in Gas Safety in Sydney. This ensures your Sydney gas cooktop installation complies with local safety standards, manufacturer’s instructions and building codes.

Our gas cooktop installation process involves the following steps:

1. Consultation and assessment — We will first assess your kitchen space, existing utilities, and specific requirements.
2. Quotation and scheduling — After the initial assessment, you’ll receive an accurate and transparent quotation for the installation service. Once you’ve agreed to it, we will schedule a convenient time for the installation.
3. Installation — We safely disconnect any existing cooktops if necessary, prepare the space for the new gas cooktop, ensure the gas supply is adequate and safe, install the new cooktop, and make all the required gas and electrical connections.
4. Testing and commissioning — After installation, we will test the appliance and connections for leaks or issues, to ensure everything is working correctly and safely.

Documentation and compliance — Finally, we will provide you with a compliance certificate, documenting that the installation has been completed safely and in accordance with the relevant standards.

The cost of installing a cooktop in your Sydney home varies depending on whether you want to raise or lower your cooking surface, as well as whether you want to install it without adding additional counter space (an under-mount cooktop installation).

Installing a gas cooktop costs $300 to $1000, installing an electric cooktop costs $300 to $600, and installing an induction cooktop costs $650 to $2200.

Switching from a gas to an electric stove is possible and offers significant benefits, despite the fact that it requires several steps.

To get started, please contact our Sydney plumbers. Our team will complete this project quickly while ensuring your safety and the security of your home.

Yes, converting from an electric to a gas cooktop is possible with Quintessential Plumbing. However, this requires installing a gas line in your kitchen if one doesn’t already exist, ensuring adequate ventilation, and possibly upgrading electrical connections for the ignition system.

Due to the complexity and safety implications of the project, we highly recommend contacting one of our licensed gasfitters to convert your electric cooktop to a gas cooktop.

Not always. We inspect the existing gas line during the installation to determine if it’s compatible or needs updating for optimal performance and safety.

We love gas and we take it very seriously. Call our fully qualified Quintessential Plumbers if you want to upgrade to gas or have your supply or appliances checked.

All of your gas maintenance and installation needs can be met by us. Quintessential Plumbers can install and commission any gas appliance, whether it’s powered by LPG or natural gas, throughout Sydney.

We are Licensed Gas Fitters. It is strongly advised that you do not attempt to do gas work yourself or hire a tradesperson who does not have specialised gas training and a gas fitter licence, as the consequences of mistakes can be very serious. In fact, in Australia, anyone doing work with LPG or natural gas must have a valid licence or be an apprentice/trainee with a valid licence and work under the supervision of a licensced gas fitter. If an unlicensed person performs gas work, your insurance may void the manufacturer’s warranty on any appliances.

Gas appliances are less expensive to operate than electric appliances — which, if you cook a lot, means less energy consumption and lower utility bills in your Sydney homes.

• Ventilation — Always use your cooktop with adequate kitchen ventilation to avoid the buildup of harmful gases.
• Leak detection — Be aware of the smell of gas. If you detect a certain odour or suspect a leak, turn off your cooktop immediately, open windows for ventilation and contact one of our licensed gasfitters for inspection.
• Regular maintenance — Have your gas cooktop regularly checked and serviced by our licensed professionals to ensure it remains in safe working condition.
• Fire safety — Keep flammable materials away from the cooktop, and always have a fire extinguisher accessible in the kitchen.
