Gas Safety Inspections for High-Rise Properties
Southbank is home to many high-rise apartments, and while some newer developments are gas-free, older buildings still use gas for hot water, cooking, and heating. That’s why regular inspections are so important.
Our licensed and registered gas technicians will check every detail, including:
- Negative pressure testing for gas appliances
- Extensive inspection of all gas fittings and connections
- Carbon Monoxide (CO) testing to protect tenant health
- Gas Appliance Servicing (Legal Requirement) as per AS 4575
- Gas main consumer line leak and pressure retention tests
- Assessment of gas hot water systems and cooktops
- Gas Installation Inspection against AS/NZS 5601 gas installation standards
- Verification of proper ventilation for gas heating systems
As outlined by Energy Safe Victoria, “All appliances must be serviced during a gas safety check” and you can rest assured that this will be performed by the Compliance Fixer team. If any follow-up works are required, we’ll clearly explain it all in an easy-to-read report.
