How Our Gas Testing and Analysis Works

We believe in a thorough, step-by-step approach to gas safety. When our engineers visit your Kidderminster property, you can expect a rigorous diagnostic process:Visual Inspection: We check the physical condition of your boiler, cooker, or commercial gas equipment, looking for signs of wear, corrosion, or poor ventilation.Flue Gas Analysis: Using advanced, calibrated probes, we measure the exact chemical make-up of the gases leaving your flue. This confirms your system is burning fuel correctly and safely.Combustion Efficiency Checks: We analyse the ratio of gas to air to ensure your appliance is extracting maximum heat from the fuel, preventing energy waste.Gas Tightness Testing: We check your entire gas installation, including the meter and pipework, to guarantee there are no hidden gas leaks.

"We had a persistent damp patch that another plumber couldn't find the source of. Fact Services came out to us in Dudley, used their thermal imaging camera, and pinpointed the hidden leak under the floorboards in minutes. Saved us from ripping up the whole living room floor. Outstanding 24/7 service!"

Sarah J. / Dudley

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common questions about our professional gas testing and analysis services in Wolverhampton & West Midlands

Why Choose Fact Services?

+

Choosing a gas engineer is about trust. You are letting someone into your home or business to handle a potentially dangerous utility. Here is why locals trust Fact Services:

  • High-Level Expertise: We aren't just "handymen." We are technical specialists who understand the science of combustion and gas flow.
  • Accredited Installers: We are officially recognised by Bosch, Worcester, and Vaillant. We know these systems inside and out.
  • Advanced Tools: While some firms use basic tools, we invest in thermal imaging and the latest digital gas analysers for pinpoint accuracy.
  • Fully Insured: We carry full Public Liability Insurance for your peace of mind.
  • 24/7 Response: Gas issues don't always happen during office hours. We offer emergency call-outs for urgent leaks or safety concerns.

What is a flue gas analysis?

+

This is a test where we place a probe into the flue of your boiler or heater. It measures the mix of gases being expelled. It’s the most accurate way to check if your appliance is burning fuel safely and efficiently. If there is too much carbon monoxide or too little oxygen, we know the system needs adjustment.

How often should I have my gas appliances tested in Wolverhampton?

+

For most domestic homes, an annual check is the standard. If you are a landlord, this is a legal requirement every 12 months. For commercial kitchens or industrial sites with high usage, you might need more frequent analysis to stay compliant with health and safety laws.

Can you detect gas leaks that are hidden under the floor?

+

Yes. We use a combination of pressure testing and thermal imaging. If your gas meter shows a drop in pressure but you can’t smell gas, it’s often a tiny leak under floorboards or behind walls. Our tech helps us find the source without ripping up your entire house.

Is carbon monoxide testing included in a standard service?

+

At Fact Services, yes. We believe a service isn't complete without a full combustion analysis. We check the air quality around the appliance and the output from the flue to make sure your family or staff are not at risk.

What happens if my appliance fails the gas test?

+

If we find a fault that makes the appliance unsafe, we will explain exactly what the issue is. We will then provide a quote to fix it. Our priority is your safety, so we will never leave a dangerous situation unresolved.
