The local gas fitter Adelaide actually trusts.
Pilot Gas is owner-operated, licensed, and focused on one thing: doing gas heating better than the guys who treat it as an afterthought. On time. Priced upfront. Done right the first time.
Five things you can hold us to
Gas heating has earned a reputation for surprise bills and sketchy workmanship. We built Pilot Gas to be the opposite.
We show up when we say
Specific time slots, not 9-hour windows. If we're running late, you hear about it from the gas fitter directly.
Price upfront, in writing
Standard service is $149. Repairs are quoted before we touch them. You always know what you're paying before we start.
Only work that needs doing
If the heater's fine, we tell you so. We don't invent repairs. Our job is safety and warmth — not upsells.
Compliance cert every job
Written report with every test result, gas fitter licence number, and heater details. Keep it for insurance or the next buyer.
SA gas regulations — every time
No shortcuts. No "she'll be right". Every job compliant with AS/NZS 5601 and SA CBS requirements.
Adelaide locals, not fly-in
We live here. Our kids go to school here. If we botch your heater, you'll see us at Bunnings on Saturday. That keeps us honest.
Verifiable, not just claimed
Every licence, registration and insurance can be checked on public registers. Ask us for the licence number anytime — we'll hand it over.

Gas heating only. Deliberately narrow.
We could do more trades — plumbing, hot water, cooking. But we'd rather be the best at one thing than average at three. Every van is packed for gas heating, every tech is trained on gas heating, every job we book is gas heating.

We know Adelaide homes because we live in them
We're Adelaide locals and we service Adelaide homes. Every suburb has its quirks, and knowing them is the difference between one visit and three.
- Norwood Victorians — usually retrofit ducted into stone cottages with tight roof cavities. Specific flue routing we know well.
- Prospect bungalows — often undersized when the back was extended in the 90s. We'll check before we sell you a new system.
- Mitcham/Hills homes — microclimate 3–5°C colder. Heaters work harder. Services catch more problems.
- Gawler wall heaters — usually old Vulcan or Cannon, 25+ years. Still repairable if we catch them early.
- Henley/Glenelg coastal — salt corrosion on flue terminations. Replacement every 7–10 years is normal.
- Tea Tree Gully & Golden Grove — newer ducted systems, zones programmed badly. Quick win to fix airflow.
Local knowledge means accurate quotes, right parts on the van, and one-visit jobs more often than not.
Why "Pilot Gas"?
Every gas heater has a pilot light — the small flame that ignites everything else. We thought the name fit: we're the pilot light for our customers' winter. Small, steady, reliable. When we're doing our job, you don't have to think about the heater at all.
That's the goal. Quiet house. Warm rooms. No worries.
