Falkner Games Room (642) - Gas Entry Replacement - 5th-12th/06/2026.

Posted: 5 June 2026

Description of the Works

The gas service isolation valve at Falkner Games Room has been reported as faulty and not providing adequate isolation to building plant. The external gas building entry into the meter cupboard will be replaced, a new meter inlet valve will be installed, an additional SIV will also be installed to the buried gas service to provide an additional isolation point to the building.

Excavation to expose the existing buried gas pipework will be required to allow the service to be squeezed off for safe working operation.

The gas service to be worked on only affects the Falkner games room heating which is currently offline for summer - there will be no disruption to accommodation blocks.

Timescale 

Friday 5th June to Friday 12th June 2026
