Installing Outdoor Gas Appliances for the Melbourne Summer and Beyond

Al Mclean • August 15, 2025

As the scorching Australian summer approaches, many of us are eagerly preparing for outdoor gatherings, barbecues, and pool parties. However, one aspect of preparation that often gets overlooked is gas appliance servicing for homeowners.

Outdoor gas appliances are a great way to extend your summer. Warm your patio, add light or enjoy a meal outdoors with professionally installed outdoor gas appliances by a Melbourne gasfitter. Read on to learn about the different outdoor gas appliances you can add to extend your summer.

Direct Gas BBQ

Undoubtedly, direct gas BBQ is the easiest, most convenient way to grill. Last-minute guests, no problem! Just fire up the gas barbie and toss on some snags. Enjoy a beer because there won’t be any last-minute dashes to swap LPG bottles with a connected direct gas BBQ. Contact the direct gas bbq-aficionados, Almac Plumbing to get you connected.

Gas Patio Heater

As the night air cools, you can turn on your gas patio heaters to keep you and your guests warm. There are a variety of positions you can choose for your outdoor gas heater in Melbourne:


  • Free-standing heaters
  • Wall-mounted heaters
  • table style heaters

If you have questions about which natural gas patio heater type and location is right for your outdoor space, the friendly gas fitters at Almac Plumbing can help.

Gas Pool Heater

And the adults aren’t the only ones enjoying themselves with outdoor gas appliances. Installing a gas pool heater has many benefits for the young and old. Quick and efficient, a pool gas heater will heat your pool and keep it warm for hours. So swim year-round with a gas pool heater installation.
