Gas Pipework Installation & Alterations
Gas pipework changes for appliance moves, replacement routes and installation alterations, with sizing, access and safe connection considered before work starts.
Gas pipework installation and alterations
New appliance feeds
Gas pipework for suitable new appliance positions where the installation can support the required load.
Pipework alterations
Changes to existing routes where kitchens, appliances or layouts are being altered.
Pipe sizing
Assessment of pipe sizing and pressure loss rather than simply extending an undersized existing run.
Accessible replacements
Replacement of accessible gas pipework where condition or previous work makes this appropriate.
Isolation points
Appropriate isolation and connection arrangements for the appliance or altered section.
Testing
Required testing of the completed gas installation work before it is put back into service.
Gas pipework has to be sized and routed for the actual load
An alteration is not just a matter of extending the nearest pipe. Appliance demand, route length, existing pipe sizes, pressure loss, ventilation of voids and access all affect the correct approach. Gas work is completed by Gas Safe registered engineers.

Gas Pipework Installation & Alterations FAQs
Can you move a gas pipe for a kitchen alteration?
Yes, where a safe compliant route is available and the existing installation can support the change.
Can you connect to any nearby gas pipe?
Not necessarily. The existing pipe must be suitable for the additional load and route; sizing needs to be checked.
Do you test the gas installation after altering pipework?
Yes. Gas pipework work requires appropriate testing before the altered section is returned to service.
