What's usually behind it in McKinnon
McKinnon homes from the 60s and 70s often have long gas runs to ducted heaters and hot water. Pressure drops are common on these older lines.
Gas work has to be done by a licensed gas fitter and certified. We repair leaks, run new gas lines, connect cooktops, ovens, heaters and BBQs, and issue the compliance paperwork when we're done. For McKinnon customers, that usually means same-day service.
McKinnon is mostly established family homes from the 1950s to the 1980s, many now on their second or third hot water unit.
