AAC Gas are specialist industrial process burner engineers based in Higher Walton, Preston. Gas Safe registered and working exclusively in commercial and industrial environments, our engineers service, repair, commission, and certify gas-fired process burner equipment for manufacturers, food producers, automotive finishers, and industrial operators across Preston, Lancashire, and the wider North West.
Preston and the surrounding Central Lancashire area has a well-established manufacturing and production sector. From the food production and engineering fabrication operations across Walton Summit and Bamber Bridge to the specialist manufacturing facilities along the M65 corridor and throughout the Ribble Valley, Lancashire businesses operate gas-fired process burner equipment that demands specialist engineering knowledge — not domestic or general commercial gas engineers stretched beyond their competence.
As the only specialist commercial and industrial gas engineers based in Preston, AAC Gas are ideally positioned to respond fast to process burner issues across the region. Call 01772 382971 — 24/7 emergency response available.

A process burner failure mid-production is one of the most disruptive and costly events a Preston manufacturing facility can face — halting production lines, triggering delays, and generating emergency costs that far exceed any maintenance programme. Regular planned maintenance is the most effective protection against unplanned downtime.Our Preston engineers carry out comprehensive process burner services including full burner strip and inspection, ignition system checks, flame safeguard and safety interlock testing, gas valve operation and leak testing, combustion analysis and efficiency tuning, flue gas testing, and heat exchanger inspection where applicable. Written service reports provided on completion. Planned preventative maintenance contracts available tailored to Preston production schedules and regulatory obligations.
When a process burner develops a fault — ignition failure, flame instability, burner lockout, control system fault, gas valve failure, or combustion problems — fast and accurate diagnosis is critical. Our engineers carry specialist diagnostic equipment and commonly required parts to maximise the chance of a first-visit repair on Preston and Lancashire production sites.We diagnose and repair faults on all types of gas-fired process burners and associated control systems — working efficiently and safely to restore your Preston operation to full production with minimum downtime.
New process burner installations, equipment relocations, and production line changes across Preston and Lancashire all require proper commissioning by a qualified engineer. We commission and recommission gas-fired process burners across the region — setting gas pressures, calibrating combustion, verifying safety interlock operation, and certifying the installation as safe and compliant before production resumes.
For energy-intensive operations across Preston's manufacturing sector, poorly tuned process burners represent a significant and avoidable cost. Our engineers carry out full combustion analysis across Preston — measuring flue gas composition, combustion efficiency, excess air levels, and CO output — and tune burners to optimal performance. This service consistently delivers measurable reductions in gas consumption alongside improved process consistency.
Industrial process burner installations require gas safety inspection and certification as part of ongoing compliance obligations. Our Gas Safe registered engineers carry out thorough inspections of process burner installations across Preston and issue the required certification — providing clearly documented records ready for insurance audits, HSE inspections, and internal health and safety management systems.
A process burner failure in a live production environment requires an immediate specialist response. Our Preston-based engineers are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week for emergency process burner call-outs across Preston and Lancashire. Call 01772 382971 at any time — we are on the doorstep of most Preston production facilities and respond fast.

Preston and Central Lancashire have a significant food production sector — including commercial bakeries, food manufacturing, ready meal production, and specialist food processing operations across Walton Summit, Bamber Bridge, and the wider South Ribble area. Bakery ovens, tunnel ovens, rack ovens, food dryers, pasteurisers, and direct-fired cooking systems all require specialist process burner servicing and compliance certification. Our engineers understand the food safety and hygiene requirements of food production environments alongside the technical demands of the gas-fired process equipment.
Automotive refinishing, general industrial coating, and protective finishing operations across Preston and Lancashire use gas-fired make-up air burners in spray booths to maintain booth temperature and airflow during spraying. We service, repair, and commission spray booth burner systems across the region — ensuring correct temperature control, safe operation, and full compliance with current regulations.
Powder coating operations across Preston and Lancashire's engineering and manufacturing sector depend on precisely controlled oven temperatures for consistent finish quality. We service and repair gas-fired powder coating oven burners — maintaining temperature accuracy, combustion efficiency, and safe operation to minimise rejects and maximise productivity.
Industrial drying systems, curing ovens, and direct gas-fired process heaters used across Preston's manufacturing and production sector — including print and packaging, plastics, composites, and general industrial drying applications. Our engineers service and maintain all types of gas-fired drying and curing equipment across Preston and Lancashire.
Industrial ovens and furnaces used for heat treatment, hardening, and general manufacturing processes across Preston's engineering and fabrication sector. We service and repair direct-fired oven burners, burner control panels, safety interlocks, and associated gas supply systems.
Gas-fired tunnel finishers, dryers, and laundry process equipment used in commercial laundries, hotel laundries, and NHS laundry facilities across Preston and Lancashire. We service, repair, and certify gas-fired laundry and textile process equipment across the region.
