Is your gas heater emitting toxic carbon monoxide into your home?

Because this deadly gas is odourless and colourless, turn to the specialists at Morgan Electrics and Gas for professional gas heater servicing in Geelong. Our qualified plumbers can text for carbon monoxide emissions during their maintenace check, giving you peace of mind that your health isn’t being eroded when the heater is on. And if there is an issue, they’ll alert you to the danger and attend to the problem swiftly.

A heater health-check by our experienced team can turn out to be a valuable health check for a home’s occupants too. Carbon monoxide can make people seriously ill, cause them to pass out and, in extreme cases, die. Symptoms can include nausea, fatigue, confusion, weakness and chest pain.

While the risk of dangerous fumes is a key reason to book in gas heater servicing in Geelong every two years, other compelling reasons centre on efficiency and running costs.

A heater working at its optimum level will be more efficient to run, keeping energy bills lower for home owners. And with utility costs climbing every year, paying unnecessary expenses because of an inefficient heater is a waste of money. So don’t throw away hard-earned cash on a under-performing unit – get one of our qualified gas plumbers in to give it a comprehensive service straight away. Your wallet and your health may well thank you!

Our staff are experienced in servicing a wide range of gas heater models from leading companies including Braemar, Bonaire, Rinnai, Jetmaster and Vulcan. Whether you have  central heating, bank or wall heaters, we’ve got you covered when it comes to these gas appliances.

With winter fast approaching, now is a great time to make sure the key source of your home’s warmth is ready to safely and efficiently get to work.

During gas heater servicing Geelong clients can expect our staff to carry out comprehensive inspections of flues, fans, thermostats and other components. Our plumbers can do necessary repairs and offer advice on heating options if you are looking to buy a new unit.

And if your heater is sending you clear hints that something is wrong – think strange noises and vibrations, evidence of soot and overheated wall surrounding the unit – get a professional in straight away.

While it’s important to make sure your heater is safe to run, it’s also good to remind people living in your home to stay safe around these appliances too. Don’t let kids get too close in case of possible burns and keep flammable items a safe distance away – especially clothes drying on a nearby clothes rack – to prevent a fire.
