The MEDICAL GAS INSTALLATIONS are the construction works of distribution systems from central source to consumption. These may include new installations in points where there are no central distribution systems, replacements of old systems that do not comply with the applicable legislation as well as extensions and improvements of the existing networks with a view to compliance with the legislation.

It is about works that require theoretical knowledge about the applicable legislation and the technical background for the sound execution of the works. The works are classified in the category of specialized works that cannot be executed by persons that have not been trained for this purpose.

Moreover, there is the need for continuous updating because the technology of these installations is a very dynamic situation that is constantly evolving with a view to achieving continuous improvement of safety conditions. Medical gases are substances with specific characteristics and behaviors that change according to the conditions and if not properly treated, they can be dangerous.
