Yarraville’s Edwardian and Victorian workers’ cottages around the village have been renovated for young families, many keeping an older ducted gas heater. FreshDuct services them properly — carbon monoxide test, burner clean and airflow check.
Village cottage with an old heater under the floor? We service it and CO-test it in one visit.
Yarraville is a tight-knit inner-western suburb of Edwardian and Victorian workers’ cottages clustered around a leafy village centre, increasingly home to young families. Renovations have modernised kitchens and added rear rooms, but the ducted gas heater under the floor is often the one that came with the house.
An older under-floor heater in a compact cottage needs a bit of care: the return-air filter loads with dust, the ignition parts wear, and the heat exchanger deserves a proper look. We clean and tune the burner, clear the airflow, check the controls and run a carbon monoxide test so a Yarraville heater keeps the family warm safely.
The things we check first on a Yarraville ducted gas heater — based on the local homes, systems and conditions.
Yarraville cottages typically run an under-floor ducted heater feeding floor grilles. We access the unit, check the burner and exchanger, and clear the grilles and airflow so every room warms.
Older cottage heaters earn a careful safety check. Every Yarraville service includes a heat-exchanger inspection and a carbon monoxide spillage test.
Compact cottage installs load up with dust quickly. We clean the burner and replace the filter so the heater breathes and warms the home efficiently.

A Yarraville cottage with an under-floor ducted heater gets a thorough service in one visit. We access the unit, clean the burner, inspect the heat exchanger, check the ignition and controls and run a carbon monoxide test.
The usual Yarraville issue is a heater that has grown slow or drops out on cold mornings, generally a dust-choked filter plus a tired thermocouple. We clean and replace what is needed and clear the floor grilles so the cottage warms evenly, with photos of the parts.
FreshDuct services ducted gas heaters across Yarraville and Seddon 7 days a week, and we are regularly working nearby in Footscray, Williamstown, Sunshine and beyond, so a Yarraville job is easy to fit in.
From the cottages around the village to the streets down towards the river, we can usually offer a prompt autumn service and prioritise a heater that has stopped warming the home.
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. Most Yarraville cottages run an under-floor ducted gas heater feeding floor grilles. We access the unit, clean and tune the burner, inspect the heat exchanger, clear the grilles and airflow and run a carbon monoxide test.
Cold-morning drop-outs are usually a worn thermocouple combined with a dust-choked filter tripping the overheat cut-out. We replace the ignition part, clean the burner and clear the airflow so the heater runs reliably through the coldest mornings.
Yes. FreshDuct services, tunes and carbon-monoxide tests ducted gas heaters across Yarraville and the surrounding inner west, 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.
