Removing gas fire?

[ianmcd]

Doesnt really matter what you think because your wrong.

.From the gas safety regs 1998
where the meter has not been re-installed or replaced by another meter before the expiry of the period of 12 months beginning with the date of removal of the meter and there is no such service valve as is mentioned in sub-paragraph (a)(i) above, ensure that the service pipe or service pipework for those premises is disconnected as near as is reasonably practicable to the main or storage vessel and that any part of the pipe or pipework which is not removed is sealed at both ends with the appropriate fitting..

Gas 112 is completely correct , however it does not always happen after 12 months but it will certainly be on the list, if the service was PE and it holds up to a tightness test they might reconnect it , if it is metal then full new supply required and can be expensive
