Gas Pipework Installation Case Study: Chesterfield Hospital

COMMERCIAL GAS PIPEWORK INSTALLATION CASE STUDY

Client: Yorkshire Plumbing & Heating Services (YPHS), on behalf of Chesterfield Hospital 

YPHS and Chesterfield Hospital have trusted Ormond Pipework for our services in commercial & industrial gas pipework.   

The problem:

Chesterfield Hospital acquired two new gas fed industrial boilers.

To supply the boilers, new gas pipework installation was required. 

Ormond were brought in install underground MDPE, steel pipe and a gas sub meter.   

Our solution:

Ormond first under pressure drilled the existing underground MDPE in order to form a new branch. 

3” MDPE was then installed up to the new commercial gas sub meter. 

Steel pipework was fabricated to a Gas Safe standard, from the sub meter to the boilers.

A successful gas tightness test was performed on the new pipework. 

Ormond then did a direct gas purge and issued a commercial Gas Safe certificate to the client. 

Tasks involved:

• Hot tapping / under pressure drilling
• Underground MDPE commercial pipework
• Steel pipework fabrication 
• Commercial Gas sub meter
• Gas purging 
• Gas tightness test 
• Gas pipework commissioning
• Gas Safe certificate 

“Ormond did a great job and met the standards of the NHS specifications.”
