How often is a gas equipment inspection carried out?

It is recommended that households in family houses and apartments have their gas equipment and appliances inspected once a year, even though it is not mandatory. The reasons are mainly safety. A possible gas and carbon monoxide leak can endanger people's lives and health. We can avoid dangerous and negative consequences mainly by preventing malfunctions. According to the Thermal Energy Act, the homeowner is obliged to maintain gas distribution and equipment in good technical condition. Those who own a pressure control station at their home are obliged to inspect it every six months and perform a pressure test once a year.

In the case of small and medium-sized companies, the law imposes on business entities, apartment buildings, institutions and local governments the obligation to carry out an inspection of the pressure regulation station every six months, while the pressure test should be carried out once a year. Gas equipment (distribution) should be inspected every 3 years and gas appliances once a year.
