Is it safe to remove the boiler

[mrtwinkle]

Hello We're having the gas meter removed and a new one will be fitted in a few months after some alterations to the house is finished.
We need to take the boiler and everything else out also.
So is it safe to take the boiler and other gas things out or will there still be gas in there?

If your 100% the meter has been removed then crack on it’s all safe just need to drain the water side and isolate the elec side

Thanks. I've just remembered there's unused gas fire that might be connected still. Does that pose a danger?

If the meter is capped and 100% sure then as per @ShaunCorbs, crack on. Are you removing the fire?

Hello, yes fire needs to go.

You can do this yourself, if you’re capping the pipe, then be sure to mention this to your gas safe engineer, otherwise you can just remove the fire.
