PAY ATTENTION TO THESE TIPS

AddToAny

Incidents in Gas facilities are not frequent, but we must put the necessary means to avoid any risk. Poor ventilation of the premises or a malfunction of the gas appliance can lead to serious risks of poisoning.

REMEMBER:

The installations must be checked every 5 years.

If you have piped gas: the company will notify you of the deadline before the inspection is due.

If you have bottles: the user must contract the revision with an installation company, before the term expires.
