Existing Pipework Testing

Tightness testing of existing commercial gas pipework at your premises is carried out by our registered Gas Safe engineers. We undertake this work at commercial premises throughout Essex and London, scheduling work for times causing minimum disruption to your operations. Regular (generally annual) testing may be required in order to ensure that your installation complies with the terms of your insurance.

The purpose of tightness testing your commercial gas pipework and components is to make certain that your system is safe for continuous use. The test is carried out at normal operating pressure and verifies, when applied to an existing installation, that the pipework is gas tight within pre-calculated tolerances and that there is no smell of gas. We also carry out safety tightness testing for landlords and facilities managers in situations where a smell of gas, however transient, has been reported on site.
