What the service covers
Testing
Pipework is tested to confirm that it is sound before gas is let into it. If a test shows a problem, the engineer explains what needs to be put right.
Purging
Purging clears air from new pipework before it is used and clears gas from pipework that is being taken out of service, for example before demolition or alteration.
Who it is for
Homeowners, landlords and builders with new or altered gas pipework, or a property where the gas supply is being taken out of service.
