Hi,

just moved into our new home which was 'mothballed' by a property
maintenance company for a few weeks.

When we had the gas meter changed from key to normal, the gas man said
that the supply had been 'capped off' and we would need a Corgi fitter to
recommision it.

What exactly is this 'capping off'?

There is no obvious external sign.

Has a barrier of some sort been inserted into the pipework on the output
side of the meter?

I have turned the gas fire part of the Baxi Bermuda boiler on briefly, but
there doesn't seem to be any flow of gas.

TIA
