Gas regulations for residential buildings

For any gas installation inside a residential building, the various parties involved (developer, architect, design office, installer, gas distributor, inspection office, etc.) must take into account the regulatory context associated with gas energy.

In most cases, all they have to do is apply the regulations, which provide a clear and precise answer to the problem at hand.

On the other hand, solving a particular problem may require interpretation. Interpretation is always a tricky business, and it's important to make sure that everyone involved is on the same wavelength.

Your contacts for technical and regulatory questions concerning gas are :

• Application technicians (ATA) from regional residential and tertiary gas agencies and/or EDF GDF SERVICES centers;

• the "Technical and regulatory information" engineers at CeGIBAT (Gaz de France's information center for industry and construction).
