Certified Gas Installation

Gas Installations That Are As Safe As They Are Functional

GAS GEYSER INSTALLATION SPECIALISTS GORDON’S BAY

Gas Geyser Installation Services in Gordon’s Bay

Our process begins with a site assessment covering bathroom count and expected demand, after which we supply and install a correctly sized gas geyser along with all pipework, valves and fittings, completed by our in-house plumbing team. Many Gordon’s Bay properties are holiday homes or weekend houses, so we also factor in how the geyser will perform after periods of non-use, favouring reliable, well-built units that don’t need constant attention.

Every installation is inspected and certified under SANS 10087-1:2024, and given the salt air off False Bay, we recommend a proactive maintenance schedule rather than waiting for a fitting or regulator to show visible signs of wear. Our leak detection service, using electronic sniffer equipment, is particularly useful for reopening a holiday property after it’s stood empty for a season.

Whether you’re installing gas hot water in a permanent Gordon’s Bay residence or a weekend property by the harbour, Core Gas Installations can size, install, certify and maintain the system.

For weekend and holiday homeowners in Gordon’s Bay, we recommend a pre-season check rather than waiting for a cold shower to reveal a problem, and can schedule that visit alongside other False Bay call-outs to keep the cost sensible. Every quote covers supply, installation and certification as one clear price. Core Gas Installations runs a 24-hour emergency line, and through the Core Services Group we can bring in Core Electrical or Core Leak Detection where needed. No job in Gordon’s Bay is too small for a proper site visit — even a single-geyser replacement gets the same assessment and sign-off process as a larger installation, because the compliance requirement doesn’t scale down with the job size.

Showers or baths at the same time	Kitchen only	1	2	3	4
Gas Consumption LPG (full flame)	0.8kg/hr	1.8kg/hr	2.6kg/hr	2.9kg/hr	3.9kg/hr
Water Flow Max	300lt/hr	720lt/hr	960lt/hr	1 200lt/hr	1 560lt/hr

About these figures:

"Gas consumption" is the most a geyser burns at full flame, with hot water running at its top flow. A shower burns far less, because the burner turns down to match the flow: about 1.2 kg an hour in winter and 0.8 kg in summer for a 7 litre-a-minute shower, whatever the geyser size.

WHAT IS CASCADING?

Cascading is used to effectively run a household with its multiple requirements.

For example: Use a 6ℓ geyser to run a kitchen, a 10ℓ – 16ℓ for the shower and run both to the bath, giving 18ℓ /min. Fit non-return valves so that the kitchen and shower can only run off their units.
