    Hi folks,

    Can you please advise how I can study if a property and a suburb has gas supply.
    I am thinking of putting gas heater as it seems more economic rather than AC for winter for my PRP that I am going to buy and I want to know if there is gas supply for the suburb.
    Thanks a lot

    Use Dial before you dig.

    Some suburbs are built in rock and do not have a gas supply as the cost was prohibitive for the infrastructure.

    Powerlines are above ground mounted on poles and a lot easier to install.

    Jemina will actually Connect for free if in your side of street. Phone operators friendly
    Takes a few days to confirm.

    My last was on other side of street and would cost $6000+.we didn't go down the path

    Or if not an option you can always go with LPG if works with what you are using

    Heat pump AC is going to be equal or cheaper to run than gas.

    Where can I find the rate for heat pump AC?
    Is it the same as heat AC?
