Installation of new boiler

Anonymous user 28/02/2024 - 3.15 PM

Does the gas meter need to be stripped as part of the installation of a new boiler? British Gas told me that it does but the plumber installing a new Worcester Bosch combi boiler said it doesn't.

Are you a tradesperson and able to answer this question?

Hi A Gas Meter never needs to be stripped, it may need works to make it compliant i.e. removal of any lead pipe work, but never stripped. I hope this helps (I am an ex British Gas Engineer)
