With electricity prices on the rise there is no better time to install gas in your home. There are still generous rebates available from the Australian Gas Networks.
There are up to $1500 in rebates you can apply for, and in some cases you can get gas connected to your home for free.
Hot Water: If you are looking to save money on your home energy cost then a ‘Gas Continuous Flow Hot Water system’ is an excellent alternative as you only pay to heat the hot water you use rather than heating water and storing it in a tank.
Home Heating: Gas offers many options such as space heaters, wall furnaces and beautiful gas log fires; some of which can be ducted into other rooms. Some space heaters start as low as under $600 so you can keep warm and not break the bank.
If you are looking for a whole home solution, ducted gas is great alternative to reverse cycle and works exceptionally well with evaporative cooling. The added bonus with ducted gas is right now there is still a $750 rebate on offer for a limited time.
Gas for Cooking: Switching to gas cooking appliances can have many benefits. Gas gives you instant heat, and you can control the heat level with precision. Gas ranges operate on either propane or natural gas, both of which are relatively inexpensive and clean burning. You save money in the long run by using gas rather than electricity to cook your food. Gas can also help in the laundry with gas heated tumble dryers.
Natural gas is the best energy choice for your home because it is instant, clean and infinitely controllable. It is also safe, efficient, reliable and convenient to use. From hot water, cooking and home heating to BBQs, pool and spa heaters and outdoor lighting, there is a natural gas appliance to suit all your needs. Andrew Cox Plumbing can assist you with all your gas appliance needs and installation.
