Why proper licensing matters for gas heater servicing in Hackett homes
In Hackett, one of Canberra’s established inner-north suburbs, older brick homes from the 1960s and 1970s sit alongside more recent townhouse and apartment developments. Many of these properties still have original gas heating infrastructure, and their heaters may not have been professionally checked by a licensed gasfitter for years. During Canberra’s harsh winters, a safety-certified gas heater is not optional — it’s vital.
What’s included in a gas heater service in Hackett
A complete gas heater service in Hackett looks at the safety and operation of the whole system, not just the surface condition. Under the Gas Safety Act 2000 (ACT), all gas work must be carried out by a licensed gasfitter. Our technician checks combustion performance, ventilation pathways, flue condition and clearances, ignition and shutdown cycles, gas connections and pressures, and safety shut-off systems — then explains the findings before any further work is discussed. For rental properties in Hackett, we provide clear written notes covering condition, compliance risks, and recommended actions for landlords and property managers.
Canberra-specific safety note
Older Hackett properties with ageing flue systems or restricted ventilation can be more vulnerable to carbon monoxide build-up when gas heaters are operating — particularly in the colder months when windows stay closed. We include complimentary CO testing with every service and treat any ventilation or flueing concern as a key safety priority.
When your Hackett home needs a gas heater service
Waiting for a breakdown is not the safest approach. Many Hackett residents contact us when their heater has hard starts or clicking ignition, shuts down during a cycle, produces less heat than expected, warms rooms unevenly, gives off unusual smells on startup, shows soot or discolouration around the unit, or has no known service history after moving into a Hackett property. Any of these issues warrant a proper inspection, not a surface-level visual.

If you manage a rental property in Hackett, we can arrange access with tenants, provide condition reports, and record any safety or compliance concerns to help protect you under your landlord obligations. For same-day gas heater service in Hackett, call with your heater brand, model, and the issue you’re experiencing — then we’ll confirm whether same-day attendance is available.

A practical guide to ACT gas safety
Why gas heater servicing in Hackett must be properly licensed
Under ACT requirements, all gasfitting work — including gas heater servicing, repairs, and installation — must be completed by a person holding the correct ACT licence. The Gas Safety Act 2000 sets the standard for gas system safety in the territory.
Gas Safety Act 2000 (ACT)
All ACT gas work falls under the Gas Safety Act 2000, which requires gas heater servicing, repairs, and installation to be handled by an appropriately licensed gasfitter — not a general handyman or unlicensed contractor.

What a proper service checks
A proper compliant service confirms safe combustion, ventilation pathways, flue condition and clearances, ignition and safety shutdown, gas supply pressures, and connections — not just accessible surfaces. If something is identified, the available options are explained before further work proceeds.
30-minute typical onsite time
Carbon monoxide — a real Canberra winter risk
CO has no smell and no colour. In Canberra’s cold winters, homes are often closed up tightly, and a poorly venting gas heater can cause CO to accumulate to dangerous levels without obvious warning signs. Free CO testing is included with every service we perform in Hackett.
