“Plumbers are being hit in two places at the moment – first at the fuel pump, and then through the cost of materials like PVC.”

Master Plumbers CEO Ashleigh Dalmau joined ABC Radio this morning to discuss the impact of rising fuel and material costs on the plumbing industry. The conversation highlighted how increasing costs are flowing through the supply chain, placing pressure on businesses and ultimately impacting consumers.

Looks like the rains are coming ☔️
Caps off tonight and maybe 🤔 back on tomorrow after a good wash 🧼 down.
Keep safe everyone over the next few days. Don’t forget to tie down your trampoline and cover your hay roll.

For your Information

🚙 GAS HOSE BAN: Are you a keen camper with a gas cooker fitted into your vehicle’s drawer system? If so, we’re urging you to check the gas hose straight away.

Due to a risk of injury from gas leaking and igniting, the energy safety regulator has banned the use, sale and hire of a gas hose assembly designed to connect LPG cylinders to cookers fitted into the drawers of utes, 4WDs and similar vehicles.

The issue? If the LPG cylinder valve is left open, gas can freely flow from the end of the hose that connects to the appliance – even when it’s not attached to the cooker.

⚠ If your hose looks exactly like the one below, stop using it immediately and contact the retailer or installer to discuss options. ⚠

How do I know if I have the banned hose?
ℹ The ban applies to a braided stainless-steel hose with diagonal yellow stripes.
ℹ It’s a flexible hose that’s 135cm long.
ℹ One end of the hose has a metal male bayonet connection – the “push and twist” type that you would normally see on portable gas space heaters in your home.
ℹ The other end of the hose has a typical connection used for LPG cylinders – either Type 27 (LCC27) or Type 21 (POL).

❓❓ If you have specific questions, please contact Building & Energy on 1300 489 099

Are you creating fatbergs when you use the loo?

Wet wipes, paper towels, and sanitary items don’t break down like toilet paper and should never be flushed.

When these mix with fats, oils, and grease, they create fatbergs – massive, foul blockages that clog pipes and can cause wastewater overflows.

Remember to flush only the 3Ps: P*e, Poo, and (toilet) Paper 💩

Everything else goes in the bin.
