Stadtwerke Saarbrücken Conducts Gas Network Inspection in Dudweiler and Burbach

Stadtwerke Saarbrücken, the city's utility company, is currently carrying out a comprehensive gas supply network inspection in the districts of Dudweiler and Burbach. This preventative measure is part of their regular maintenance and safety checks on the gas infrastructure, scheduled to continue until September 2025.

Inspection Details and Private Property Access

The inspection teams from Stadtwerke Saarbrücken Netz GmbH, a subsidiary of Stadtwerke Saarbrücken, require access to gas lines and related equipment that may be located on private properties. Property owners or tenants are usually notified in advance by Stadtwerke Saarbrücken with detailed information about the date and time of the inspection.

During the inspection, authorized personnel will enter the property to check meters, pipelines, and connections to ensure everything meets safety and operational standards. It is crucial to grant access as refusal can impact service or lead to safety concerns. If there are any specific access issues or concerns, property owners are advised to contact Stadtwerke Saarbrücken directly to arrange suitable alternatives or appointments.

Inspection Process and Purpose

The inspection includes checking the gas supply network in the districts of Dudweiler and Burbach, based on the regulations of the German Association for Gas and Water (DVGW). Specialists from Stadtwerke Saarbrücken Netz GmbH are inspecting both public and private house connection lines up to the house wall. A highly sensitive measuring device is being used during the inspection, capable of detecting trace amounts of gas in the air and precisely locating potential leaks.

The purpose of this inspection is to protect the population and ensure a reliable energy supply, as well as to increase supply security. Suspected cases can be quickly located and repaired due to the inspection.

Contacting Stadtwerke Saarbrücken

If you live in these districts and have not received notification but anticipate inspection work, it would be best to contact Stadtwerke Saarbrücken customer service to confirm the schedule and get specific instructions. Citizens can contact Stadtwerke Saarbrücken's customer service via email at [email protected] for questions about the ongoing pipe network inspection.

The gas network of Stadtwerke Saarbrücken, including house connection lines, is approximately 900 kilometers long. It is important to note that the inspection can only be conducted in dry weather, as it requires the use of a highly sensitive measuring device.

This recurring annual measure conducted by Stadtwerke Saarbrücken is a central part of regular maintenance for the gas supply network, aiming to maintain the highest levels of safety and reliability for the citizens of Saarbrücken.

The inspection by Stadtwerke Saarbrücken Netz GmbH, a subsidiary of Stadtwerke Saarbrücken, involves checking not only public but also private house connection lines up to the house wall in the districts of Dudweiler and Burbach, as part of their routine industry inspection in the finance sector, ensuring energy security and supply reliability for citizens.

Refusal to grant access to inspectors can lead to potential service issues or safety concerns, and property owners with specific access issues or concerns are advised to contact Stadtwerke Saarbrücken directly.
