Gas appliance removal and supply disconnection
We coordinate removal of the gas appliances you are replacing. An authorised gasfitter carries out the gas work and makes the gas pipes safe. We arrange disconnection when the remaining gas appliances are no longer needed.
Switch in stages
You can switch your hot water first and keep your gas hob for now. While your piped gas supply remains connected, your gas retailer’s daily charges still apply. We talk through when you want to replace the remaining appliances and disconnect gas.
Using bottled LPG?
We replace LPG appliances with electric ones in the same way. We talk you through returning the bottles to your LPG supplier; bottle returns are handled with that supplier.

Questions, answered
Is removing an appliance the same as disconnecting gas?
No. Appliance removal and supply disconnection are separate steps. Removing one appliance does not necessarily mean you are ready to disconnect the whole supply.
What if I still use one gas appliance?
You can keep it for now. While your piped gas supply remains connected, your gas retailer’s daily charges still apply. We arrange disconnection when you no longer need gas.
What happens to my LPG bottles?
Bottle returns are handled with your LPG supplier, and we talk you through that step.
