Gas Detection & Gas Alarm Services
We have over 14 years’ experience in Gas Alarm and Gas Detection, hold a variety of electrical qualifications and have extensive experience in the fields of printed circuit board applications and Electrical Installation (IEE Regulations). In addition, our engineers are qualified in fault diagnosis and the rectifying and repair  of gas detection equipment.  We work with a variety of manufacturers’ equipment – please contact us for advice on your system and a competitive quotation.

New Installations

We can design and commission a complete new installation, or amend/extend an existing gas detection and gas alarm system. This can include the functioning link to a gas supply.

Our scope of work can include the gas alarm sounder/beacons, connection points for a link to fire panels or BMS system plus signage to notify operatives of the “course of action” in the event of alarm activation. We pride ourselves on specifying quality, reliable and suitable equipment from a range of product manufacturers so our gas detection and alarm installations are as trouble free as possible. Our testing and commissioning process is very thorough, using calibrated test gases, test equipment and commissioning documentation.

Periodic Maintenance

We operate a regular maintenance support service to test, calibrate and commission gas alarm sensors, alarm control panels, sounder/beacons, gas shut off solenoid valves etc. We ensure all our gas sensors are held in storage in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions so as to maximise the working life of products. This is to promote a trouble free operation and with the aim to reduce possible fault breakdown callout and the customer’s costs.

Fault Call-outs

• We provide a reactive fault call-out service to attend to gas alarm situations, and/or false alarms
• We are located close to the M5/M4 motorway interchange so that we can swiftly access via a major motorway connection
• We offer a 365 day, 24 hour support service
• As our engineers have a wide experience of gas detection equipment and our aim is to rectify a gas detection fault in one visit
• Hand held gas detector
