Oakleigh’s post-war brick homes, many held by the same families for decades, run long-serving ducted gas heaters. FreshDuct services them the honest way — carbon monoxide test, burner and heat-exchanger check and a filter clean.
Family home with the heater it has always had? A service and CO test keeps it safe.
Oakleigh is a settled south-eastern suburb with a strong community and a good deal of post-war brick housing, much of it held by the same families for decades around the lively shopping strip. Ducted gas heating is common, and in many of these long-held homes the original system is still the one doing the work.
A heater kept for the long term shows its years in familiar ways — a dust-loaded filter, worn ignition parts, a heat exchanger due for inspection. We clean and tune the burner, replace the small worn parts, inspect the exchanger and run a carbon monoxide test so a long-serving Oakleigh heater keeps the family warm safely.
The things we check first on a Oakleigh ducted gas heater — based on the local homes, systems and conditions.
Many Oakleigh homes keep the original ducted heater for decades. We service them honestly, inspect the exchanger and tell you plainly when a unit is genuinely near its end.
A long-serving heater deserves a careful safety check. Every Oakleigh service includes a heat-exchanger inspection and a carbon monoxide spillage test.
Decades of dust choke the filter and burner of an older Oakleigh system. We clean the burner and replace the filter so the heater breathes and warms the home efficiently.

An Oakleigh ducted heater that has warmed the same family for decades is usually worth keeping if it is serviced properly. We clean the burner, replace worn ignition parts, inspect the heat exchanger and run a carbon monoxide test.
The common Oakleigh call-outs are a heater that will not stay lit or one slow to warm the far rooms. We fix the small ignition faults, clear the filter and airflow, and give an honest view on how many winters the unit realistically has left.
FreshDuct services ducted gas heaters across Oakleigh, Oakleigh South and Huntingdale 7 days a week, and we work nearby in Clayton, Bentleigh, Glen Waverley and Dandenong, so an Oakleigh job fits into our run.
From the homes near the shopping strip to the quieter streets towards Hughesdale, we can usually offer a prompt autumn service and 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.

“Great communication and a tidy job. They checked the thermostat and airflow and sorted a room that was never getting warm.”

Often, yes. Many Oakleigh heaters are mechanically sound and just need the burner cleaned, a worn ignition part replaced and the airflow cleared. We assess it honestly, CO-test it, and only recommend replacement if the heat exchanger has genuinely failed.
A heater that will not stay lit is usually a worn thermocouple or a dirty burner. We test and replace the ignition parts, clean the burner and confirm the heater lights and holds, then run a carbon monoxide test to make sure it is safe.
Yes. FreshDuct services, tunes and carbon-monoxide tests ducted gas heaters across Oakleigh and the surrounding south-east, 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.
