Hi , I can not get my gas stove to light, got a new gas bottle and regulator, I am new to gas and there are 2 shut off valves one before the cooker and the other before the water heater. I have tried them in both positions because I do not know which is the on or off position.

When I turn on the gas stove I can not smell any gas or get any of the hobs to light.

I have added pics of the layout, a copper gas pipe which links from the regulator/bottle, through the deck and then splits one way to the gas stove and the other way to the water heater, there is no master shut off valve. I have checked the main pipe for flow by disconnecting one side and could smell gas so no blockages in the pipes. I can only assume the Lido cooker is not allowing the gas to flow.









it be the water heater and cooker through lack of use have somehow got blocked? (over 6 years no use).

Any ideas on how to test them and unblock them?


Thanks for any ideas.
