Gas Testing

kirkgas
any good gas guy would not be happy to connect and sign off a pipe he hasn't fitted/inspected

does that mean you wouldnt tee-in in case there was something awry somewhere on the installation?

in this instance we have a copper pipe fitted some time ago open ended and never used, i just meant i would think twice, as i didn't know what was used to seal the pipe were the fittings full slip and going to last when pressurised, its only 10m so a renewal is a good option, we do connect into existing all the time but as it is connected we have to assume all is well, after testing to confirm it is gas tight, our visual is "best endeavour" to ensure we are not liable for the way the pipes are fitted and won't be liable in the event of a prob, so perhaps i am contradicting myself, buy that was my gut reaction tt this scenario.
