I couldn’t be happier with the work done by JR Gas & Water. They made the whole process of installing my heat pump hot water heater so easy. Great communication, fair pricing, and excellent workmanship
I had the iStore 270L heat pump installed last week to replace an older Quantum unit which had gone past the end of its usable life. The unit was installed by JR Gas and Water in Brisbane. The unit is a fair bit quieter than the old system and the installation was completed fairly quickly. I can't manage to connect the system to the wifi and am… Read more · 1
constantly stuck on a loading screen before I can enter the wifi password through the app, but otherwise the system looks fairly easy to use.
I found the website fairly easy to use in terms of choosing between the different units, but the options in terms of installation could have been a bit clearer. I had a bit of back and forth with Jarred over email which helped to resolve the queries regarding the type of installation required.
The installers did a good job and did not take too long. I had my own electrician finish off the connection, but JR do offer that service if you don't have that option.
A great company to deal with who also went out of their way to make it a seamless installation , and a perfect product delivery aswell .everything was exactly as stated and is performing perfectly,I will be recommending this excellent service to all thanks again for everything!! AAA+++ Show reply

Easy to book! Guys turned up the next arvo replaced our old clunky rain water pump. Did a great job. Left the site tidy. Pump works like a dream with zero noise! Took away our old pump and the old cover we no longer required. Will buy a nice new one! Haven’t even paid for the job yet. I asked the guys how am I paying & they said an invoice will… Read more · 1

A very professional removal of old electric hot water system and installation of new heat pump hot water system. Arrived on time and cleaned up after. Show reply
This is my 4 th Vulcan HWS to replace my old ones from different homes and by far not only an excellent product, the install and workmanship is second to none making my whole experience with JR Gas and Plumbing better than your average Joe ! The total price for Gold install was reasonable as well with all the works outlined clearly. Thx Kris and Rawhan, great work !!! Show reply
I recently had a Rinnai B20 gas hot water unit installed as replacement and I’m extremely pleased with both the product and the installation process. From start to finish, the experience was smooth and efficient. I’m very happy with the pricing provided by JR Gas and Water. The B20 unit itself performs exceptionally well, it provides consistent… Read more · 1
hot water on demand, and the water temperature is reliable with no fluctuations. It's also compact and neatly installed, saving space without compromising performance. The installation was handled professionally. Big shout out to Kris and Jaden. The team arrived on time, worked cleanly, and completed the job efficiently. They took the time to explain how the system works and ensured everything was tested and functioning before they left. The workmanship is excellent, and the attention to detail shows. Overall, I’m very happy with the Rinnai B20 and the quality of service provided. I would highly recommend this unit to anyone looking to upgrade their hot water system, it's a great investment in comfort and efficient.
My Hot Water Died and I Nearly Lost the Will to Live... Then JR Gas & Hot Water Saved My Marriage (and My Sense of Smell) My old instant gas hot water system chose the dead of winter to give up the ghost. For the first time in history, my wife was furious that there was no gas in the house—usually, she's complaining I have too much of it. My… Read more · 1
weekend was ruined, my life's purpose was in question, and I was staring into the cold, bleak abyss of a winter without hot showers.
I am not a brave man. I tried a cold shower exactly once. I stuck one arm under the water and my soul immediately tried to leave my body. I gasped for air like I was floating on a piece of rubble after the Titanic went down. After that traumatic experience, I decided personal hygiene was overrated and resigned myself to smelling like old socks.
In a desperate, smelly haze, I found JR Gas & Hot Water online. My tradie-traumatised eyes couldn't believe what I was seeing: prices listed right there on the website. No "Call us for a dodgy quote" nonsense, just pure, beautiful transparency. Frankly, I was skeptical, but the thought of another cold shower (or another complaint from my wife) spurred me to take the plunge.
The very next day, two knights in shining armour, Charlie and Joshua, arrived lugging the giant iStore 270L barrel that was destined to save my bacon. They were respectful, patient, and didn't even laugh at my ignorant questions like, "Can't we just put it on the other side of the house, 50m away from the pipes?". They calmly explained the costs and downsides, saving me from myself. When they encountered the old gas heater cover in the wall, instead of leaving an ugly hole, Charlie had the genius idea to drill holes through it to run the pipes, making it look neat and tidy. It worked a treat!
Just when I thought it couldn't get better, the electrician Mark and his apprentice Mike turned up. They were absolute professionals, neatly cabling around my crooked, ghetto-installed awning without a single complaint and leaving my switchboard perfectly labelled.
I witnessed a miracle that day. Four tradesmen in a row who were punctual, professional, friendly, and did an immaculate job. JR Gas and Hot Water has cracked the code: they sell great systems at fair, transparent prices, and they've somehow managed to collect a team of tradies who are rarer than hen's teeth. If you're on the fence, just jump. You won't regret it. Highly, highly recommended!
Highly recommended! JR Gas and Water is a matter-of-fact company, therefore trustworthy. Chris Chand and his workmate installed an OS water filter for me. Their service was remarkable: well-mannered, friendly and thorough. I will absolutely use this company again. Show reply
Best experience ever, with JR Gas and Water. Our 18 yr old Gas hot water system decided to leak internally. After researching and receiving several quotes on same Rinnai system installed, we saved over $1100. other quotes ranged from $3327-$2828 after discounts. Communication with JR Gas and Water 5 star. From quote to install less than 24hours.… Read more · 1

I just wanted to share my positive experience with JR Gas and Water. Recently, our hot water system failed over the weekend, and I reached out to them for a quote. I was pleasantly surprised when I received a detailed quote just on Sunday. They were incredibly responsive and arranged the installation of a heat pump hot water system (iStore 180L)… Read more · 1
in just two days. Their quick communication made the process seamless.
Additionally, I found their pricing to be very reasonable compared to other quotes I received. The installation was carried out by Isaiah and Joshua, who were not only professional but also very clean and tidy in their work.
Overall, I am very happy with the service and will 100% recommend JR Gas and Water for plumbing needs. Their fast response and convenient communication really stand out.
If I could give them 10 stars I would, every aspect of their communication and installation was friendly but professional, and was not just good but exceptionally great at the absolute best price. I went through the website "Installed Today" read the Terms & Conditions and left a question about the location of the Hot water system in the laundry,… Read more · 1
well, Jarrod from JR Gas and Water phoned me in a very short time and answered my question and felt very reassured, so after the call I got straight online and booked and paid for the Dux 315lt hot water system, a valve kit to suit and installation. Shortly thereafter I got a receipt email, and one from JR to set an install appointment time the next day. The next morning at 8am the delivery guy came with the hot water system and valve kit, JR came at around midday at the appointed time phoning me in advance to tell me they were on their way. Joshua [J C] and Charlie [C S] were friendly and professional and although being young men, the job they did was outstanding, I could not be happier with the workmanship and the outstanding service and communication I got from beginning to end. Additionally I save hundreds of dollars for the H/W System, valve kit and installation. Yes, I shopped around, after getting the best online price for the Dux 315 lt. System, I phoned the store that advertises they will beat it by 10%, after hours of being on "hold" and talking to untrained staff, I finally got someone who could do the deal, the best they could do was MATCH the price of just buying the Hot Water System and not include delivery, what a frustrating waste of time that was. I know good quality and service when I see it, until I retired I spent years as a professional handyman working in the Brisbane CBD.
JR Gas & Water installed a Rinnai B20 continuous flow gas hot water system in place of a storage system at my town house yesterday. A complicated exercise to dig up tiles and concrete to relocate pipes, but managed brilliantly by Joshua and Kris who worked an extremely long day to get the job done. A shout out to them for their work. The process… Read more · 1
of organising a quote was quick and easy, even with extra steps that required a site visit. Mostly done online, including approval of a good price for the unit and installation. JR coordinated all tradies, included the electrician, to get the job done promptly including a tidy up at the end. This was critical for me, with a body corporate to critique the end appearance. As a result, we had hot water flowing by end of the day; the hot water cylinder and other rubbish gone; and I expect much lower gas bills. Thank you, JR Gas & Water.
Really good experience from the guys at JR Gas & Water! Was a bit sceptical with the volume of reviews but they are the real deal. Had a good chat with Charlie when I met with him and I think the reason why these guys do so well is that they enjoy their jobs and it shows in their work. Would recommend these guys to anyone.

the aircon drain that was going along the old system but you get that with the big jobs. Purchased a "Rheem MDc AmbiPOWER 280L Heatpump Top Mount" for reference.

Jr gas and water were amazing to deal with from start to finish, will definitely be using their services for future Reno’s, can’t fault these guys at all. By far the best experience we’ve had, hot water system was replaced and hot water in no time, I work shift work and they worked around my schedule. Thanks again for your service! A+++ Show reply

The boys turned up within 3 days after taking the offer of up to 30 days. The guys did the job of replacing my gas hot water system quickly and the quality of workmanship was at a great standard. Job well done and I am more than happy with JR Gas & Water Show reply
Follow-up · I had a Bosch system, 15-18yo, still worked but not the best temp control. They left no mess at all and also disposed of the old system. The offer was better than most with other small benefits thrown in. Their work was randomly inspected by council with no problem. They are not the cheapest, but far from the dearest and well worth your money. Old and new system photos below.

pump all installed including new electrical connections all by mid-morning. We had hot water that night. Couldn't be happier.
Follow-up · There is always hot water now. App is very good at showing you exactly what's going on, how hot, how much energy is being used, etc. We should have put the fan thingy facing our outdoor area because it blows out cold air and might help cool that area down at times. As for the landscaping, it still sucks but it's DYI so I shouldn't complain...

Top-notch service! Huge thanks to the two gents from JR Gas and Water for the speedy delivery and awesome job installing my new twin boiler stainless steel hot water system. Not only was the workmanship professional, but they also offered the cheapest price for installation in Brisbane. It’s rare to find such high-quality work at such a competitive rate. Highly recommend them for anyone looking for a great deal and even better service. Show reply

Dealing with JR Gas & Water couldn't have been easier - from the quotation process to organising installation to the installation itself. The quotation price was competitive & fast and the installation itself couldn't have gone smoother. Josh & Ruan were on time, installed our heat pump with no hassles and left the area clean. Highly recommended & will be a repeat customer when the time comes. Show reply
We recently had an Enviroheat 250L heat pump system installed and have been very happy with it so far. The installation went smoothly, everything was clearly explained, and the system has been working well since day one. JR Gas & Water were our chosen installer, and the service was professional, punctual, and hassle free. Overall, a very positive experience and a great installation outcome. Show reply

It is not worthy the trouble – This guy Jerred is greedy for money and will rip you off at the first opportunity. I felt misled by the quotes he sent me. I requested to have my heater relocated and replaced with a new one, but he didn’t respond to my request properly. Instead, he sent Gold and Platinum options, expecting me to know that one of them didn’t include the relocation… Read more
service, even though I never asked for a quote without it. The communication was very poor, and in the end, only part of the job was done. To complete the “proper” job, he said I’d have to pay a $400 cancellation fee and the new quote, even though the team was already at my place to do the service. My husband even offered to help with part of the job, but the money-hungry Jerred insisted on charging an extra $400 plus the full amount of the new quote.
At least the workers who came were good. I feel sorry for them, having to work under such management. Don’t believe the response they’ll put below. Truat the negative reviews! They offer a voucher so customers can give them good reviews.

Kris and Ruan carried out the installation to an outstanding standard, even taking the time to correct issues left by previous work. They were punctual, professional, and demonstrated exceptional workmanship throughout. I particularly appreciated how they listened carefully to my specific requirements around the additional water tempering settings and ensured everything was configured perfectly for our family’s safety.
The entire experience was smooth, efficient, and far exceeded my expectations. I would not hesitate to recommend JR Gas & Water to anyone seeking prompt, reliable service and expert-quality installation.

The booking process was the easiest I’ve used—fully online, transparent pricing, and still someone to speak to when needed. After being without hot water and freezing, they got us up and running again quickly and smoothly.
Finally, their quote was around $1,200 cheaper than a large local competitor. Genuine value and excellent service. Highly recommend and will definitely use them again.
