Industrial Gas Pipework Purging Services

Commercial and Domestic Boiler Repairs Ltd have extensive experience in the commissioning and decommissioning of industrial gas pipework and the associated pipework purging services required.  Our teams of Gas Engineers can undertake comprehensive gas testing and purging of industrial gas pipework throughout the South of the UK and elsewhere, with a proven track record on industrial gas projects both large and small.  We are also familiar with the problems raised by industrial gas pipework which may not have been designed to be purged easily.

In IGE/UP/1 and IGE/UP/1A (Strength Testing, Tightness Testing and Direct Purging of Industrial and Commercial Gas Installations), The Institution of Gas Engineers and Managers (IGEM) has laid out clear principles which must be observed whenever a gas supply is to be commissioned or decommissioned, whether a new or an existing installation is involved.  The person making the supply available must ensure that all air and gas, other than the gas to be supplied, is purged from the installation.

Commercial and Domestic Boiler Repairs Ltd are able to bring to bear various techniques to suit the circumstances of each project, including:

• Compressed air purge (where appropriate) of industrial gas pipework
• Low pressure air fan purge units for industrial gas pipework
• Nitrogen pulse purging of industrial gas pipework
• Nitrogen slug purging of industrial gas pipework

In each case, an appropriate operating procedure will be documented following a full assessment of the risks involved, showing clearly the safety considerations to be taken into account during the process.  Liaison with external bodies and local emergency services will be conducted accordingly, and following completion, certification will be provided on handover detailing the test and purge results.

Commercial and Domestic Boiler Repairs Ltd offer a same day response to industrial, commercial and public sector customers in all regions of the UK, and for non-emergency work, appointments round the clock can be made to suit your operational schedules.  Call us NOW on 020 7912 0171 or see our Regional Contacts page to locate your nearest Engineering Team.
