ANGELFIRE1 Posted October 16, 2019 Share Posted October 16, 2019 Have someone with the correct gas paperwork and certificated in the gas industry to check for you. If anything went wrong, just imagine. Angel1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 16, 2019 Share Posted October 16, 2019 I've been told you just in couple it as it's self sealing , it's the reconnection that costs apparently Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it self sealing? What a stupid question to ask on the internet! Nobody knows what type of connection you have, how old it is, how well installed it was in the first place, whether it has been damaged at any point or any amount of other vital information. GET A GAS ENGINEER TO LOOK AT IT!!! 😳 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obelix Posted October 16, 2019 Share Posted October 16, 2019 Doesn't mean it's self sealing doesn't mean if it is that it works.... The only safe seal you have us the cylinder tap at the meter. Get someone in if you have to ask the question you are sadly not competent to work on it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 16, 2019 Share Posted October 16, 2019 You are correct and obviously I was asking if it was safe otherwise I would've done it It's a bayonet fitting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve just disconnected a gas cooker and it was self sealing. If you want to double check the connection is sealed use a bit of washing up liquid and if there is no bubbles all should be fine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
