Quoting a Gas fitting with Reece Trade Prices
Regulators, test gauges, gas pipe, isolation valves, AS 5601 compliance items — priced at your real Reece trade rate.
Or try it on the web →Gas fitting is the highest-stakes plumbing work. A wrong reading on a manometer, the wrong regulator, an isolator in the wrong spot, and you're either failing audit or risking a coronial inquest. QuoteMate's Reece integration pulls trade-rate pricing on every piece of gas gear in your maX catalogue — regulators, test gauges, gas-rated isolators, copper or stainless gas line, multilayer gas pipe — so the quote you put in front of the customer reflects exactly what the job needs and exactly what it costs at your trade rate.
Why Reece pricing matters for gas fitting
Gas gear isn't cheap. A typical residential gas appliance install — say a new gas cooktop on a new gas point — needs a regulator (~$60), a test gauge calibration (~$40 amortised), 2m of 15mm coated copper or multilayer ($45–$80), a couple of gas-rated isolators ($35 each), AS-compliant fittings, and the consumables for a Stage A and Stage B test. That's $250–$400 in materials at trade rate; at RRP it's $350–$550, and the difference comes off your margin. With your Reece maX catalogue feeding QuoteMate, every gas line item — including the AGL/AS 5601 compliance gear most plumbers under-spec — is priced at your real trade rate the second the AI reads 'gas cooktop install' in the job description.

AS 5601 compliance items most quotes under-spec
The compliance gear that gets missed: a regulator on every LPG appliance install (not optional), an AGA-stamped flexible at the appliance connection (not a generic copper-tail), a gas-rated isolator within easy reach of the appliance, a Stage A pressure test and Stage B leak test as line items (the consumables matter), and the Certificate of Compliance fee. QuoteMate prefills all of these at your Reece trade rate and adds the CoC fee as a separate line so the customer sees what they're paying for.
Branch stock for emergency gas call-outs
Gas leak call-outs don't wait for next-day delivery. Knowing your home Reece branch carries a Cavagna regulator, a calibrated test gauge, and 6m of 15mm coated copper at 4pm on a Friday is the difference between fixing the leak and tagging the appliance off. QuoteMate's Reece integration reads your home branch on every quote, so the AI suggests SKUs your branch actually has now. When the order goes through, the branch sets it aside for collection.
Certificate of Compliance flow
Every gas job ends with a CoC. The maths: CoC fee is regulated state-by-state ($30–$120), the form has to physically sit with the customer or the energy retailer, and the audit risk if it's not submitted is real. QuoteMate adds the CoC fee as a separate quote line, prefills the AS 5601 reference, and pulls the form pricing from your Reece catalogue if you buy CoC books from them.
