Construction and Installation Supervision

Installing a system to code requires having the correct equipment in the correct location. The plans should have this laid out. In many cases in new construction a contractor may have changed some of the architecture to make it easier for walls or equipment to be installed. This will cause a change in the installation of the medical gas system. Medical Gas Management's knowledge of code compliance for a complete system allows for as little down time as possible when these delays occur.

Medical Gas Management will make recommendations to help save money during the construction phase and during the life of the system. If a contractor is not qualified to complete the job Medical Gas Management will work closely with the contractor by providing a qualified person to perform the work needed or we can train the contractors personnel to qualify them to work on medical gas systems.

What ever the need Medical Gas Management will help keep your project on line and most importantly patient safe. Call us today for a quote on how we can help you!
