Buyers Beware with EBAY

Tuesday, 14 July 2009

This week we were altered by the AGA and Department of Mines and Energy with a national safety alert:
A company is importing Gas equipment from China and selling the items on EBAY:
 
Problem:
  • The Gas Pizza ovens that are being made for sale are not gas appoved!
  • The buyer needs to connect a gas bottle to the unit- This is unsafe and illegal!
  • It is illeagal to sell a gas appliance that is not approved!
  • Never buy a gas appliance without the maker warranty gas water mark either AGA approved, QGA certified or Sai Global gas watermark certification.
Plumbers and gas fitters beware:
 
It is illegal for a plumber / gas fitter to connect , service or maintain a gas appliance unless the appliance has a current gas safety approval:
 
If in doubt contact the QGA for assistance  secretary@qga.org.au
