Why is it in the living room ? Sorry, I recently purchased this house so not sure why anyone would put a gas outlet in the living room

Gas heaters.

They are one of the most cost effective ways to heat a home... bugger all use in summer and with reverse cycle AC being a lot cheaper these days they dont see much use but last time I checked, still very cost effective to run.

Be careful with the moisture these gas heaters release. Very easy to end up with mold everywhere.

Also the unvented gas heaters you're talking about are shit for health. They really should be banned because of their health impacts.
