Leaks can happen over time causing a reduction in efficiency of the appliance, more gas to be used and, most importantly, create a danger to those living in the home. For your safety they recommend annual servicing and a safety inspection of: • Gas fires • Gas water heaters • Gas hobs • Outdoor fires and BBQ’s This can be done quickly and efficiently by Laser Plumbing’s qualified technicians. The business is owned and operated by Sumner locals Chris Dick and his wife Carol McCann. Chris has 40 years’ experience in the industry, and as he says, a small amount of time spent now can help to avoid nasty surprises later on. “The last thing you want are issues mid-winter when you need hot water and heating the most.” In fact, if you have any plumbingrelated concerns around your home, give Chris a call. He will be happy to offer advice and sort out the problem, which may very well be a simple job. WINTER ChECkLIST 1. Gas appliance check. 2.
