Professional Gas Bottle Connection Services

Outdoor Living & BBQ Connections

North Shore's beautiful climate makes outdoor entertaining a year-round pleasure, but your gas bottle setup needs to handle everything from casual weekend BBQs to large family gatherings. We install gas bottle connections that deliver consistent pressure to your outdoor appliances, whether you're running a single BBQ or connecting multiple outdoor cooking stations.

Our BBQ gas bottle installations include proper regulator selection, secure mounting systems, and weather-resistant connections that stand up to Auckland's changing conditions. We also install convenient changeover valves that let you switch between gas bottles without interrupting your cooking.

Hot Water System Connections

Many North Shore homes rely on LPG for consistent hot water, especially in areas where natural gas isn't available. We connect gas bottles to hot water systems with properly sized regulators and safety features that ensure steady hot water supply for your household needs.

Our gas line installation work includes running protected gas lines from your bottle storage area to your hot water system, with accessible shut-off valves and proper ventilation considerations. Every connection is pressure tested to guarantee reliable operation.

Commercial & Restaurant Systems

North Shore cafes and restaurants depend on uninterrupted LPG supply for their kitchen operations. We design and install commercial gas bottle connection systems that include automatic changeover systems, ensuring your business never runs out of gas during service periods.

These installations require detailed planning to meet commercial kitchen safety standards and council requirements. We handle all documentation and provide the compliance certificates your business needs for insurance and operational approvals.

Comprehensive Connection Services

Moving from natural gas to LPG, relocating existing gas bottles, or upgrading your current system all require different approaches. We assess your specific situation and recommend the most effective solution for your property and usage patterns.

Our connection services include regulator upgrades, line pressure testing, and leak detection using electronic equipment alongside traditional testing methods. We also provide guidance on gas bottle sizes and delivery schedules that match your consumption patterns, helping you avoid running out at inconvenient times.

For properties with existing gas bottle connections showing signs of wear or age, we conduct thorough safety inspections. Our gas leak detection and repair services identify potential problems before they become safety hazards, and we can upgrade older connections to current safety standards.

Safety & Compliance Focus

Every gas bottle connection we complete undergoes comprehensive safety testing. We check regulator operation, test all joints and fittings for leaks, and verify proper gas pressure delivery to your appliances. Our work includes detailed documentation showing compliance with New Zealand LPG safety standards.

We provide safety certificates for every installation, giving you the documentation needed for insurance purposes and property sales. Our installations also include clear labelling and emergency shut-off procedures, ensuring everyone on your property knows how to operate the system safely.

Complete Installation & Ongoing Support

Before starting any connection work, we conduct a site assessment to understand your gas consumption needs and identify the optimal location for gas bottle storage. We consider factors like accessibility for delivery trucks, distance from appliances, and safety clearances from buildings and property boundaries.

Our installation process protects your property with careful work practices and complete cleanup after each visit. We test everything thoroughly before considering the job finished, and we provide clear instructions on operating your new gas bottle connection system.

When you need gas stove installation or want to add more appliances to your LPG system, we can extend your existing gas bottle connection to accommodate additional appliances. Our expert gas fitting services ensure all connections maintain proper pressure and safety standards regardless of your system's complexity.

If you're planning a renovation that affects your current gas bottle setup, or if you're experiencing issues with gas supply consistency, our gas fitting and certification services provide complete solutions with all necessary documentation for council approvals.
