Meter opening, compliance inspection or periodic check: have your gas installation inspected by an accredited body. We guide you to the right inspection for your situation.
A gas inspection is not just an administrative formality. It is an essential verification that guarantees the safety of your installation and allows you to use gas legally.
Gas is a safe energy when properly managed. A regular inspection detects leaks, ventilation issues or non-compliant connections before they cause problems.
In Belgium, a compliance inspection is mandatory for certain gas installations: new installation, major modification or certain building types.
Your distribution system operator (DSO) requires a gas compliance certificate to open or reopen your meter. Without this document, no gas supply.
The inspection results in a report recognised by authorities and network operators. It proves that your installation meets Belgian standards.
Belgian reference standards vary depending on the type of gas and the power of the installation. Each situation requires a specific inspection carried out by a body with the appropriate accreditation.
Not all gas inspections are the same. The type of inspection you need depends on several criteria: the type of gas used (natural, butane or propane), the power of your installation, the building type and the accreditations required by regulations.
Distributed via the public gas grid. The most common gas in urban areas, connected directly to your meter.
Gas in a tank or bottles, used in areas not connected to the grid. Also known as LPG or heavy gas.
Single-family homes, apartments, small buildings. The vast majority of residential installations fall into this category.
Collective buildings, office buildings, industrial sites. These high-power installations require specific accreditations.

Answers to the most common questions from our customers.
Which gas inspection should I choose?
The type of inspection depends on your installation: natural gas or LPG (butane/propane), and power below or above 70 kW. For a house or apartment connected to town gas, it is usually the natural gas inspection ≤ 70 kW. If you have a propane tank, it is the butane/propane inspection. In case of doubt, our advisors guide you free of charge.
Is a gas inspection mandatory?
Yes, in several situations: for a new installation, after a major modification, for the opening or reopening of a gas meter, or during periodic checks required for certain building types. The inspection ensures that your installation meets Belgian safety standards.
How long is a gas inspection valid?
The validity depends on the type of inspection and context. For a domestic installation, the compliance certificate generally does not have an expiry date as long as the installation is not modified. For professional installations or collective buildings, periodic checks may be required (every 2, 3 or 5 years depending on the case).
What to do in case of non-compliance?
Don’t panic. In case of non-compliance, our inspector clearly explains the points to be corrected. You have the necessary work carried out by a qualified installer, then we return for a re-inspection. We guide you throughout the process until you obtain your certificate.
Can I combine several inspections in a single visit?
Absolutely! It is even recommended. You can combine the gas inspection with the electrical inspection, the EPC certificate or other services. This saves time and you often benefit from advantageous rates on combined packages.
Our team is available to guide you towards the right inspection for your situation and schedule a quick intervention.
