Step 2: Site Inspection and Safety Assessment

Before installation, our engineer checks:

• Ventilation in your kitchen
• Gas supply location and connection point
• Space and stability of your existing cooker unit
• Compliance with British Gas Safety Regulations

If any issues are identified, we’ll provide recommendations or offer immediate fixes before proceeding.’

Step 3: Disconnecting the Old Cooker (if needed)

If you’re replacing an old unit, our engineer will safely disconnect it, ensuring the gas line is sealed and there’s no leakage. We also help with responsible disposal of the old cooker upon request.

Step 4: Installing the New Cooker

We then install the new gas cooker, which includes:

• Connecting the appliance using the proper gas hose
• Securing the cooker to prevent tipping
• Ensuring heat-resistant wall clearance
• Checking all connections with soapy water or leak-detection fluid

All fittings and hoses used are compliant with UK safety standards.

Step 5: Gas Safety Tests and Commissioning

Before signing off, we conduct

• Gas leak tests
• Flame supervision device checks
• Ventilation confirmation
• Flame failure device functionality

Once the cooker passes all safety checks, we light it up and test the burners with you present.

Step 6: Issuing a Gas Safety Certificate

For your records, our engineer will issue a Gas Safety Certificate confirming that the cooker has been professionally installed and is safe for use.

Step 7: Post-Installation Guidance

We’ll walk you through:

• How to use your new cooker safely
