System type
Ducted Gas Heating Klemzig
Ducted gas heating in Klemzig keeps whole homes warm through cold Adelaide winters, and Klemzig Air Conditioning installs, services and repairs these systems across the suburb's post-war brick homes.
Warmth You Can Trust From a Local Heating Team
We are a local, family-owned business with ten years operating across Greater Adelaide, and our heating work is carried out under ARC licence L162586, RAC01 - Full Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Licence.
What a Ducted Gas Heater Actually Is
One gas furnace sits outside or under the floor, and insulated ducts push warmed air to outlets in every room you want heated. A wall controller sets the temperature for the whole house.
- A gas furnace burns natural gas to heat a heat exchanger
- A fan pushes air across that exchanger and into the ductwork
- Outlets in each room deliver the warm air
- A return grille pulls cooler air back for reheating
- Zones let you heat only the rooms you are using
Because the heat comes from gas rather than an electric compressor, the running cost through a long July cold snap is often lower than reverse cycle. That matters in Adelaide, where winters are genuinely cold and heating is a real purchase, not an afterthought.
Which Klemzig Homes Suit Gas Ducted Heating
Detached Brick Homes
The detached brick and brick-veneer places built through the fifties and sixties on old market-garden land near the Torrens are the natural fit. Their roof space usually takes ductwork, and their solid walls hold the warmth well once it is in.
Units and Villas
Courtyard villas and unit blocks closer to O.G. Road are often better served by a split system, because a single gas furnace and duct run rarely suits a tight footprint. We say so plainly when that is the case.
Existing Gas Connections
Natural gas reached this part of the inner north-east decades ago, and plenty of the older homes still run the original brass assemblies, copper risers and internal fittings installed at that first connection. We inspect those fittings before any heating appliance work touches them.
Running Costs Through an Adelaide Year
Gas ducted heating earns its keep in winter, but it does not cool, so the year splits in two. In summer you need a separate cooling plan.
- An evaporative cooler, which handles the dry summer heat on its own while the gas furnace carries winter, since evaporative units never warm a house
- A ducted air conditioning system, which can share the same ductwork and zones
Zoning keeps winter bills down because you heat only the rooms you are using, and a furnace sized to the house rather than oversized saves gas every night it runs. We size against the rooms, the insulation and the windows, not a guess.
What an Install Involves
Check the Gas Line
Before anything else, we inspect the gas assembly and run. Original fittings on the post-war homes sometimes need upgrading before a new furnace can connect safely.
Plan the Ducts
We measure the roof space, map the outlets to the rooms and design the zones. Fitting ductwork into a fifties roof space is skilled work, and the age of the stock is what we plan around before quoting.
Fit and Commission
The furnace goes in, the ducts connect, and we commission the system properly: burner check, airflow balance, controller setup. You get the walkthrough before we leave.

Questions
Ducted Gas Heating Questions, Answered
Can you connect a new gas heater to old gas fittings?
Yes, and we inspect them first, because plenty of homes around Klemzig still run original brass gas assemblies and copper risers that need checking before any heater swap goes ahead.
Is gas heating cheaper to run than reverse cycle in winter?
Gas is often cheaper to run through long cold stretches, and we compare both honestly against your home's size, insulation and existing gas connection before recommending either option.
How long does a ducted gas heating install take?
Most installs run one to two days, depending on roof space, how many zones you want and whether the gas line or switchboard needs work before the unit goes in.
Do you service ducted gas heaters as well as install them?
Yes, we service and repair ducted gas heaters across the suburb, from burners and fans to thermostats and ductwork, and we carry the parts that fail most.

Yes, Humm interest-free finance is available for larger jobs, and we fix the full price in writing before any work starts so there are no surprises.
