Gas Geyser Installation Services in Woodstock
Core Gas Installations sees gas geyser jobs across all of it, from a straightforward home replacement to a converted warehouse space with basic kitchen and ablution facilities.
We assess each property’s bathroom count and expected demand before recommending a correctly sized gas geyser, then install it along with all pipework, valves and fittings using our in-house plumbing team. Given how much of Woodstock’s housing stock predates gas as standard, we also check the broader supply setup — cylinder cage, regulators, isolation valves — meets current SANS clearance requirements as part of the same job.
Every installation is inspected and certified under SANS 10087-1:2013, documentation Woodstock property owners increasingly need given how active the area’s resale and rental market has become. We also service existing gas geysers and offer leak detection using electronic sniffer equipment for older, previously unchecked installations.
If you’re in Woodstock and need a gas geyser installed, replaced or certified, Core Gas Installations can quote and complete the work.
For converted commercial and studio spaces in Woodstock, we check the broader gas supply setup meets current standards before finalising any geyser installation, given how much of the area’s building stock predates gas as a standard utility. Every quote covers supply, installation and certification as one clear price. Core Gas Installations offers a 24-hour emergency line, and through the Core Services Group we can bring in Core Electrical or Core Leak Detection where needed. We keep a record of every Woodstock installation on file, useful given how much the suburb’s building stock has changed hands and use over recent years.

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.
