"Hi. Domestic gas engineers
can only work in domestic properties such as houses, bungalows, flats.
Whereas, a commercial gas engineer can work on business properties such as hospitals, hotels, shops, takeaways,etc. Hope that helps."
"A domestic gas engineer can only work in domestic house hold, that is houses.
A commercial gas engineer can work in non domestic properties like Hotels etc"
"Every aspect of gas work has different qualification needed to complete work a domestic engineer can only work on pipework and meters to a certain volume and should volume of gas exceed this then a commercial engineer would be required"

Commercial work categories refer to the size of pipework, appliance type and gas consumption in addition to property type."
Answered on 9th Sep 2020 - Member since May 2020 - report"Wow amazed so many engineers got this one wrong a gas engineer can work on domestic or commercial gas installation it all boils down to the size of the meter, the size of the pipe work and the amount of gas within the installation, yes there are domestic and commercial engineers but they should know what installation they can work on, Depending on a few factors(or they should know)"
