Gas System Surveys

Why do you need it?

What is a survey?

On average, we find 12 gas leaks at each K-12 school we survey. For colleges and universities, the average is an alarming 34 gas leaks per campus. It is your responsibility to maintain gas lines on your side of the utility gas meter. 
A gas system survey is a comprehensive, detailed gas assessment of your campus gas system and assets completed by MBS Engineering engineers and technicians. 

How does it benefit you?

What do we find?

A gas system survey identifies safety hazards, relives liability concerns, protects your students and facilities, provides a map and list of gas related assets, and delivers expert recommendations from our gas engineers. 
In my blog post, I talked about the scary results of unkempt pipelines. Old pipes weather and corrode from the elements over time, contractors take the cheap way out and use short cuts, the use of wrong materials, and poor, unqualified installers. It's scary how easy gas fires, or even gas explosions, can start as a result of unkempt or poorly installed gas systems.

The Gas System Survey Process

  1. Pre-Survey Work - Engineers review existing plans of the campus and produce a survey plan.
  2. Perform Gas Survey Work at Site - The trained and certified MBS technicians use utility grade leak detection equipment and assess every gas system on the site and record each leak/component. 
  3. Daily Report - I write and send the report within 24 hours of the survey. The report contains a full list of the leaks and gas components discovered, as well as an interactive map showing the locations of all the leaks and components. 
  4. Final Comprehensive Report - I also write and send the final report within a week of the initial survey. This report lists, in full detail, all leaks and gas components including recommendations made by our experienced gas engineers on the safest and most cost effective solution.
MBS Engineering is here to help and provide experienced, utility certified quality services to not only diagnose, but also repair issues within your gas infrastructure - keeping you, your facilities, and the number of people at your facilities safe and worry free.
