GAS INSTALLATIONS
BELLVILLE
We’re here to help
Bellville is one of the busiest commercial hubs in the Northern Suburbs, with high-rise offices, a major transport interchange, and a university nearby — alongside plenty of established residential streets that predate all of it.
OUR SERVICES
Gas Installations
We install any type of gas appliance, from stoves and hobs to fireplaces and geysers, and cover all types of installations.
After a new installation, maintenance or repair, we will issue a compliance certificate in accordance with SANS 10087-1:2013.
We conduct inspections on all installations and repairs, covering components such as regulators and isolation and safety shut-off valves.
We can supply and install any size gas cylinder cage to your existing installation to meet all SANS requirements.
We offer maintenance to existing gas installations, ensuring that piping and fittings are always in the best condition.
Using state-of-the-art sniffer devices, we can detect the smallest of leaks on your gas installation, putting your mind at ease.
Gas Installation Services in Bellville
Core Gas Installations does both sides of this suburb’s gas work: full commercial installations for offices and retail premises, and standard residential jobs for the homes that surround the business core.
For commercial clients, we install and maintain gas systems built for office kitchens, retail food outlets and light commercial use, sized to handle continuous demand and fully documented for health and safety compliance. For residential clients, we install gas stoves, hobs, ovens, fireplaces and geysers, and build cylinder cages positioned to meet SANS clearance requirements on Bellville’s typically established stands.
Every installation, residential or commercial, is certified under SANS 10087-1:2013. For Bellville’s commercial tenants, that certificate is often part of a broader compliance audit; for homeowners, it’s increasingly requested during a property sale alongside electrical certification. We also carry out gas inspections for both property types, useful given how much of Bellville’s building stock has changed use or ownership over the years.
Our leak detection service, using electronic sniffer equipment, and general maintenance are available throughout Bellville. Given our head office is a short drive away in Brackenfell, response times here are among the fastest in our service area.
Core Gas Installations can quote residential and commercial gas work anywhere in Bellville.
For commercial tenants preparing for a health and safety audit, we can turn an inspection and any necessary correction around quickly, since delayed compliance paperwork is often the difference between passing an audit on time and having to reschedule it. Every quote is itemised clearly before work starts. Core Gas Installations runs a 24-hour emergency line for Bellville clients, and through the Core Services Group we can bring in Core Electrical or Core Leak Detection where a job needs it.
