Looking to add gas cooking to your kitchen?
If you already use natural gas for your hot water or heating, this can be as simple as buying a new cooktop and having your gasfitter install it.
If you're not currently using gas at home, The Gas Hub connects homes within our network for free if you're connecting hot water or heating, and cooking can easily be added at this time - or later on if you're not quite ready to change out your oven or cooktop.
Further information
Are you based in Wellington, Taranaki, Manawatu or Hawke's Bay? You may be able to connect your home to gas for free with The Gas Hub.
Enter your address in our gas checker for an instant result on whether you're within the free gas connection range!
