St Kilda blends grand Victorian mansions and converted flats with bayside apartments, and ducted gas heating spans the lot. FreshDuct services them carefully — carbon monoxide test, burner clean and a controls and airflow check.
Converted flat with a shared or original heater? We service it and CO-test it in one visit.
St Kilda is a dense, characterful bayside suburb where grand Victorian mansions, mansion conversions, period flats and modern apartments all crowd together near the water. Heating ranges from large old ducted systems in the grand homes to compact units in the flats, a lot of it in rentals and converted buildings.
Older and shared heating is the story here, and it is often the least maintained. A large mansion unit or a heater serving converted flats can go years between services, quietly building up faults. We clean and tune the burner, inspect the heat exchanger, test the controls and run a carbon monoxide check so a St Kilda home is warm and safe, with a clear record for the owner.
The things we check first on a St Kilda ducted gas heater — based on the local homes, systems and conditions.
St Kilda’s conversions and flats often run older or shared ducted heating. We inspect the heat exchanger and run a carbon monoxide test so a long-neglected unit is made safe.
Large old mansion heaters are substantial and often original. We service them thoroughly, check the exchanger and advise honestly on whether to service or replace.
Compact flat installs load their filters quickly. We clean or replace the filter and check the airflow so a small unit heats the home efficiently.

A St Kilda ducted heater — whether a big mansion unit or a compact heater in a converted flat — gets a full service. We clean and tune the burner, inspect the heat exchanger, test the controls and run a carbon monoxide check, and give owners a clear written report.
For flats and rentals we coordinate access with tenants or agents and turn the work around quickly. The common issue is a unit neglected for years; we catch up on the service, put right what is worn and confirm the heater is safe to run.
FreshDuct services ducted gas heaters across St Kilda, St Kilda East and Elwood 7 days a week, and we are regularly working nearby in Prahran, Brighton, Richmond and Carlton, so a St Kilda booking fits easily into our run.
From the mansions near the Esplanade to the flats behind Fitzroy Street, we handle owners, tenants and agents and can prioritise a heater that has stopped working.
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.

Yes. We service older and shared ducted heaters in St Kilda mansion conversions and flats, coordinate access with tenants or agents, inspect the heat exchanger, run a carbon monoxide test and provide a written report for the owner.
Have it checked before relying on it. A ducted gas heater neglected for years can have a dirty burner, worn parts or a compromised heat exchanger. Our service and carbon monoxide test confirms whether it is safe and corrects what is not.
Yes. FreshDuct services, tunes and carbon-monoxide tests ducted gas heaters across St Kilda and the surrounding bayside, 7 days a week. Call 04 3191 8137 or request a free quote.
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.
