The Council require a new gas heating contractor so that all reasonable steps taken to ensure all residents, customers and members of the public are not put at risk from the effects of gas, carbon monoxide or unsafe appliances that are owned or managed by the Council. Potential risks associated with gas as a fuel are significant, given the risk of fire / explosion or from carbon monoxide poisoning due to incomplete combustion arising out of poor or irregular maintenance, or incorrect installation methods adopted for the appliances or systems.
