  • Hi its getting close now, completion date set for friday, so should have my keys's then, I've found out that the current suppliers of gas/elec is n-power and water is united utillities. Also the boiler is not a combi boiler its a system/tank boiler.
    What does the gas stop-c*ck look like and where is it normally posistioned?
    Am I right then in guessing to connect everything up contact the electricty/gas company get that connected first then water. Once this has been done Turn your water on check for any leaks, run cold water tape to get rid of any air in the system then turn the gas on and test your boiler?

    Thanks Andy

    The gas lever is on the meter. Try all the utilities first, they may still be connected, all mine were.
