A gas lamp requires little or no servicing, it contains only a plug cock and a mantel.

A bunsen burner with a mantel would work exactly the same way

It's great that that they need very little servicing scruff, but what this lady really needs is reassurance from a gas qualified type professional. Reassurance that she is using them properly/safely and that they basically 'look' ok to a profesional eye. Her husband always dealt with them and with him sadly gone, she needs a professional opinion. Any possibility of you visiting Plumber?
Anyway, thanks for everything guys!

I have contacted Corgi regarding gas lights they have told me that ACS LE11 (Leisure) is required to work on these, unfortunately I do not hold this ACS so I am unable to service them.
