Footscray property changes hands fast, so many owners inherit a ducted heater with no service history at all. FreshDuct gives it a fresh baseline — carbon monoxide test, burner clean and a full function check — so you know exactly what you have.
Just bought a Footscray home? Start with a baseline heater service and CO test.
Footscray is a diverse, fast-changing inner-western suburb where Victorian cottages, post-war homes, new apartments and busy share-houses all sit close to the station and the river. Ducted gas heating turns up across the older housing stock, often in rentals and shared homes that see heavy use and patchy maintenance.
A heater that has gone years without a service is the one most likely to hide a fault, and in a shared home that risk affects everyone under the roof. We clean and tune the burner, inspect the heat exchanger, test the controls and run a carbon monoxide check so a Footscray home is warm and safe, and we give owners a clear record.
The things we check first on a Footscray ducted gas heater — based on the local homes, systems and conditions.
Footscray homes change hands often, so a heater’s service record is frequently a mystery. We give the whole unit a fresh baseline check and tell you where it really stands.
With no service history, the burner and injectors are the first thing we address. A proper clean gets a Footscray unit lighting cleanly and burning blue again.
From riverside cottages to new apartments, the exchanger is what we never assume. We inspect it for cracks and run a carbon monoxide spillage test on every unit.

A lot of Footscray owners have just bought the place and have no idea when the ducted heater was last touched. We treat it as a fresh start: clean the burner, inspect the heat exchanger, check the ignition and controls, and run a carbon monoxide test to establish exactly where the unit stands.
That baseline matters most in a suburb of apartments, cottages and converted buildings where records rarely follow the property. We hand over a clear written report and photos, so whether you live in the home or let it out, you know the heater is safe and what, if anything, it needs.
FreshDuct services ducted gas heaters across Footscray, West Footscray and Seddon 7 days a week, from the cottages off Barkly Street to the apartments by the river and the station.
We work nearby in Yarraville, Sunshine, Williamstown and Essendon too, and can bring forward a heater that will not start before the first real cold arrives.
A thorough, documented annual service — every component checked and a carbon monoxide test done before the cold sets in.
We check the whole ducted gas heater — burner, heat exchanger, gas valve, thermocouple, ignition and wiring.
A negative-pressure CO spillage test to make sure the heat exchanger is sound and nothing is venting into your home.
Burner, injectors and ignition cleaned and adjusted so the heater lights reliably and burns cleanly.
Return-air filter and supply vents checked and cleared so warm air flows freely to every room.
Thermostat, sensors and controls tested so the heater cycles correctly and holds the temperature you set.
A clear service report with photos and honest advice on whether to service or replace.

A standard annual service and carbon monoxide test is a fixed, affordable price; the cost only changes if the heater needs a part such as a thermocouple, igniter, filter or fan component — and we quote those clearly before we fit anything. Call 04 3191 8137 for pricing.
Every two years at a minimum, and ideally once a year before winter. An annual service in autumn means the burner, heat exchanger and controls are checked and a carbon monoxide test is done before you rely on the heater through the cold months.
Yes. Every ducted gas heater service we do includes a carbon monoxide safety check — we test for CO spillage and inspect the heat exchanger for cracks, because a faulty exchanger can leak carbon monoxide into the home. It is the single most important reason to service a gas heater.
Annual service and tune, carbon monoxide safety test, burner & heat-exchanger check, filter and airflow — a clean, documented service with photo proof. Available 7 days.
