We can design, install and service Ducted Gas Heating systems in homes or commercial buildings. Simmonds heating and Cooling technicians are fully licensed to install gas ducted heating systems in new or existing buildings.

Why Choose A Gas Fireplace?

A gas fireplace also doesn’t need to be refueled from time to time by throwing a log into the fire. On top of that, you can be the one to decide just how hot the temperature should be. This level of control is not as easy to achieve with a traditional fireplace, which can often lead to uneven comfort. A gas fireplace is similar to a traditional fireplace, except that it runs on gas rather than kindling. This comes with a lot of desirable advantages, chief of which being its environmental friendliness.

Can I combine ducted gas heating with air conditioning?

Yes. If you need both heating and cooling in your home, the same ducts can also be used by ducted air conditioning to cool your rooms in the warmer months of the year. Reverse cycle air conditioning is an alternative that provides both heating and cooling through the same electrically-powered unit. However, with natural gas and LPG being cheaper to run than electricity in most parts of Australia, you'll save money on your energy bills by using gas ducted heating.

What types of systems are there?

Like most heating systems, you have a range of options for ducted gas heating. The type of system you choose will depend on factors such as the size of your home, what features you want and how energy-efficient you need it to be. More efficient systems from trusted brands generally cost more, but they'll also save you more on your energy bills in the long term.

There are two main types of systems:
Ducted gas heating only

If you only require heating or you already have air conditioning, we'll set up your ducted gas system to provide heating only. The system generally won't be in use during the warmer months of the year, and we recommend that you schedule a maintenance check before the winter arrives so our technicians can check it's still working at optimal efficiency.

Ducted gas heating with refrigerated air conditioning

If you want a system that heats and cools, we'll install a ducted system that integrates gas heating with air conditioning. You can switch between the two systems as required, which use the same network of ducts and vents to provide year-round comfort.

Gas Ducted Heating Adelaide

Gas Heating is a very popular option in Adelaide for heating the home. Ducted heating systems make use of gas to heat air that’s then distributed throughout the rooms of a house via a system of ducts.
In addition to being one of the most cost-effective and efficient forms of heating available, Gas Ducted Heating is a versatile option, with ducts able to be installed in either the roof or floor cavity.
Add on air cooling which is also available for ducted heating systems, and you have comfortable temperatures all-year round.

Gas-Ducted

We are the Experts in Gas Ducted Heating

Gas Ducted Heating is a whole house heating solution that works via a series of ducts.
Heated air is produced from a central heating unit that draws air from the return air grill inside your home and passes it through a gas heat exchanger, which efficiently heats the air. A fan then pushes the heated air through the ducted system for an energy efficient heating solution.
Gas Ducted Heating is regulated with a controller that allows you to set your desired temperature. Your gas heating system will then automatically turn on and off to maintain this temperature.

FAQ’s

The cost of ducted gas heating in Adelaide depends on the size of your home, the number of outlets, system capacity, duct layout, zoning requirements, access, brand selected and whether it is a new installation or replacement. A smaller single-storey home will usually cost less than a larger home or a more complex installation. The most accurate way to price ducted gas heating is to arrange an on-site assessment with Simmonds Heating & Cooling so the right system size and installation requirements can be confirmed.
Yes. Ducted gas heating can be a very effective heating option for Adelaide homes, especially during cold winter mornings and evenings. It is designed to warm multiple rooms through a network of ducts and outlets, making it suitable for families who want whole-home heating. Ducted gas heating can be particularly useful in larger homes, older homes and properties where strong, fast heating is needed. Simmonds Heating & Cooling can assess your home and advise whether ducted gas heating or reverse cycle air conditioning is the better long-term option.
Ducted gas heating should be serviced regularly to help keep the system operating safely, efficiently and reliably. The right service frequency can depend on the age of the system, how often it is used and the manufacturer’s recommendations. Servicing may include checking the heater, ducts, airflow, thermostat, ignition, fan operation and general system condition. Because gas heating involves gas appliances and connections, servicing should be carried out by a licensed gas fitter. South Australian Government guidance also states that gas fitting work must be performed by a licensed gas fitter. (South Australia Government)
Common signs your ducted gas heater may need repair include weak airflow, uneven heating, unusual noises, strange smells, the system turning off unexpectedly, higher running costs, pilot or ignition problems, or rooms not reaching the set temperature. If the heater is older or has not been serviced recently, faults may become more common. If you smell gas, turn off the gas supply if safe to do so and contact a licensed gas fitter. SA Government advice says gas leaks should be reported immediately and that gas work after the property meter must be handled by a licensed gas fitter. (South Australia Government)
Whether you should repair or replace an old ducted gas heating system depends on the age of the unit, repair cost, reliability, parts availability, safety, energy efficiency and how well it heats your home. If the system is regularly breaking down, becoming expensive to maintain or no longer heating effectively, replacement may be the better long-term option. Simmonds Heating & Cooling can inspect your existing system and advise whether a repair, replacement ducted gas heater or upgrade to ducted reverse cycle air conditioning is the most practical solution.
Yes. Ducted gas heating can often be replaced with ducted reverse cycle air conditioning, giving you both heating and cooling from one central system. This can be a good option for Adelaide homeowners who want year-round comfort and are considering moving away from separate gas heating and cooling systems. Before replacement, the home needs to be assessed for system capacity, ductwork suitability, electrical requirements, zoning, access and installation requirements. Simmonds Heating & Cooling can recommend whether reverse cycle air conditioning is suitable for your property.
Running costs depend on gas prices, electricity prices, system efficiency, home insulation, solar power, zoning and how the system is used. Ducted gas heating can provide strong whole-home heating, while reverse cycle air conditioning can provide both heating and cooling and may be efficient when correctly sized and used with zoning. There is no single answer that suits every Adelaide home. Simmonds Heating & Cooling can compare your existing system, home layout and comfort needs to help you decide whether ducted gas heating or reverse cycle air conditioning is the better option.
A ducted gas heater may not heat properly because of blocked filters, duct leaks, thermostat issues, airflow problems, ignition faults, fan problems, poor zoning, ageing components or a system that is too small for the home. Uneven heating can also occur if ducts are damaged or outlets are not balanced properly. If your ducted gas heater is not warming the home effectively, Simmonds Heating & Cooling can inspect the system, diagnose the issue and recommend the appropriate repair or replacement option.
Ducted gas heating is safe when it is correctly installed, properly maintained and serviced by qualified professionals. Because gas heating involves gas combustion, flues, ventilation and gas connections, regular servicing is important. Homeowners should never ignore gas smells, unusual operation, soot marks, headaches, dizziness or other possible warning signs. In South Australia, plumbing, gas fitting and electrical work must be certified using an electronic certificate of compliance, which the SA Government describes as a legal document required by law.
