Brisbane Gas Regulator
Repairs and Replacement

A faulty gas regulator can cause gas appliances to consume excessive amounts of gas, leading to unusually high gas bills. If you are on reticulated gas (Metered Gas) It’s advisable to call your gas provider or utility company for guidance on how to proceed. However if you are on bottled gas then it is up to you to find a gasfitter to carry out any repairs as the regulator belongs to you and not the gas provider (unlike Natural Gas customers).

Licensed and qualified gas fitters should always perform any gas-related work in your home. They have the necessary training, certifications, and experience to handle gas installation, maintenance, and repairs safely and effectively.

Hiring a licensed gasfitter, such as BPG, is crucial for ensuring your safety, compliance with regulations, and the efficient operation of your gas systems. Our gas fitters possess the necessary expertise, training, and knowledge to work with gas safely, minimising the risk of accidents, gas leaks, and health hazards.

We are well-versed in industry regulations and codes, ensuring that installations, repairs, and maintenance meet the required standards. By hiring a licensed gas plumber, you benefit from their insurance coverage, accountability, and warranties, providing peace of mind and protection in case of any issues.

No. If you suspect a gas leak, you should prioritise your safety and evacuate the premises immediately. It’s always better to be safe than sorry.

We sure do! 10 years in fact.

• It could be a sign of a gas leak if you hear an unusual hissing or whistling sound near a gas appliance, gas line, or metre.
